@Aleksey Thanx. I especially like your spoon of doom, a weapon of subtle disaster.

@Bricz-Art @Braden-Hallett Thanks! I am taking these shapes directly from the book I posted above. It's such a great addition to the class work - the more work the better for me right now!

[ArtofAleksey]

@Erin-Cortese i cant seem to find the post would you mind sharing it again?

Same subjects, more effort

Nice work! It's really hard to get that dark value in bright light effect with ink. That star on the ball looks pretty awesome!

[Erin.Cortese]

@Aleksey Sorry, it was in last week's post. Here is the book, it has been sooo helpful!

@Braden-Hallett You are killing it!

[ArtofAleksey]

@Erin-Cortese ohhh i watch his youtubes sometimes! didnt know he did a book

[DaveLeekArt]

I’m not sure if I got the three different local values right on the cubes? Also, shading a gradient on spheres might just be one of my newest least favourite things to do.... which means more practice is needed. Damn.

Hope everyone’s having a great day and finding time to move that pencil/pen/stylus, etc.!

[DaveLeekArt]

@Erin-Cortese I love that the book literally says ‘simple guide’ and then proceeds to put what looks like an extremely challenging drawing to pull off on the front cover lol

I'm right there with you. I HATES IT.

These are the little space engineers I've been doin' alongside the 'learn how to ink class'. Looking at them all together there's been a DEFINITE improvement.

[chrisaakins]

working on stuff, I promise! Here are some vague close ups.

[ArtofAleksey]

@Braden-Hallett these are fantastic! I love how you made the helmet shapes match the head shapes

I did not practice gradienct today, got carried away by painting woods.

@Erin-Cortese really nice. wow.

[ArtofAleksey]

Ok this is gonna be an inktober piece but I’m having trouble with the light from the lantern. I dont think I should have done another lantern on the rabbit but it’s fine.

I was thinking about using a wash but i want to know if anyone would be willing to do a draw over and help me out with doing it with hatching. Pleases.

@Bricz-Art Lol, yup it's not a simple cover...but the title is definitely accurate. The author approaches the concepts in such a simple way, that it makes them very easy to understand and apply. This book is making this class so much easier for me.
