I did this exercise 5 days in a row, the 1st day is watching the reference, the 5th day is without any reference:
1 minute gestures:
I've seen many artists advice online to do everyday gesture and figure sesions so I'm working on getting the habit of drawing at least 1 hour of 1-5 min figures, I'll try to post monthly my improvements on this field.
Wow you are really killing these assignments

Some perspective practice, last one is using the horizon and banishing points from clip studio, really handy tool for weird perspectives:
1 point perspective practice, this is an interpretation of my bedroom, I turned it into an alchemist chamber in a cartoonish style, not using the perspective tool but this time I used the vector layer in order to get cleaner lines and it's freaking awesome:
2 point practice. This time I used Marc's lineart legendary brush, not totally convinced by it but the line "tips" look much cleaner with this one, I'll keep messing around with it but probably at the sketching part of the art:
This is it for term 1, in total took me one month and a half to complete this one, really happy with the progress but I gotta keep up practicing these kind of stuffs.
Nice work on those perspective pieces. I struggle a lot with those X—X
Lovely work with this 2 point perspective, this is so funny I used the exact same reference when I did mine so I am so familiar with this lol! You did great! I also come from a healthcare background as well so welcome to the forums!
Here goes the first part of term 2:
Not much to say about this one, some shapes, a neat font from the web provided and a few effects:
This was made using only the vector tool, I also added some effects on the shapes and used a cool pattern for the eyes. If any feed-back is accepted I would recommend Mark to do at least 1 monster to show the process to the student as I was kinda lost with this one. Although I don't like the result too much I found this tool might be practical in some cases:
Here is my videogame case. I used and old work that I showcased on the first entry of this post. Hopefully it's cool that I used Marks logo on the side (I'll change it if there is a problem):
And finally part B of the photoshop assignments:
Overall I'm probably not using photoshop in the near future, I'll stick to clip studio as it has proven me to be both powerful and simple to use. I was missing it so much while using photoshop that for me is a no brainer. I'll have to give it to photoshop tho that the brush creation is so straight forward and so easy to do that in that matter photoshop gets the point, but overall I'm glad that I finished this part of term 2 already because it felt kind of heavy tbo. (To clarify I used clip studio to make assigments 4, 5 and 6)
Noice I recently switched from photoshop to CSP so i can draw and animate all in one program. i havent tried making brushes in CSP yet but i heard its super powerful and customizable...
With the exception of fancy photoshop liquify, isn't everything else pretty much the same? i think you could have done most of these in CSP tbh XD but nice work 
Interesting, I’m goong to have to give clip studio some love. So far I have been doing most of my work on photoshop and painter when on the pc. What were you missing most in clip studio when you were on the photoshop assignments (apart from the feel and familiarity I guess)

Mostly familiarity, the options that it brings by default like displaying every brush on my face, the navigator, the fact that you can press right click and move the canvas (you have to download an external software to move the canvas with the middle click in photoshop). CSP might look overcrowed with features but everything is just there and not hidden behind some keybinding or some extra settings that I have to look up on the internet, overall for me is WAY more intuitive than photoshop. Sorry for the late response I mostly come here to post my progress
Here I bring some poses after 1 monthe practice, been practicing on alternate days (also december is kind of a slaking month for me).
A few 5 minute figure drawing, gesture->figure sketch:
Here are a couple 45-60 min figure drawings, trying to get as accurate as possible(first gesture->sketch->fine line) :
And lastly the first assigment for the term 2 - anatomy 1:
I tried to use different brushes for the shading in order to get different texture effects or light effects. I'll try to get the rest of this term done before February (hopefully).
dayum ur shading is really good!
