@Coley Thank you!!

@demotlj He ate it. The gophers in California are bigger than a hamster but smaller than a guinea pig, or the size of a large russet potato . He shook it about for a while until it stopped wiggling then swallowed it whole like he would a fish. It’s amazing to watch them hunt. They move so slow right up until they strike, almost like a snake. And if they miss they act like a cat that fell off a table, “I totally meant to do that”
@Erin-Cortese I think you would feel differently if you could see what they do to your yard.

@chrisaakins Thanks. I hope Braden decides to do the class on light and shadow next because I’m totally guessing the cast shadows.

We'll see I might do the 'how to draw anything' course since it reinforces a LOT of what we learned here and I think I really need to hammer a lot of this home.

I gotta make myself a style sheet for things like rock, wood and such,

demotlj

@Braden-Hallett I'll join just about any class you choose because this has been a great way of learning. Besides, I'm not only learning about drawing, I'm learning about marmots and pocket gophers!

This is my last post until October. I am going hiking on mountains. I am bringing a sketchbook so we’ll see how much I get accomplished.
Thankyou @Braden-Hallett for starting this group. I’ve had fun and am looking forward everyone’s inktober projects.
PS I’m still working out those dang balloons. Lol

@burvantill Have fun hiking in the mountains!

I'm glad you got a lot out of this course. I think we've all come a long way

My extra credit homework — a drawing of my grand-niece. Still not completely happy with the face but it was good practice inking. (In Procreate)

@burvantill Love this work. Have fun hiking.

@burvantill @Erin-Cortese @Braden-Hallett @demotlj @Coley @Bricz-Art @xin-li @Aleksey and anyone else! Bryan the girl now has a class on cross hatching in SVS learn! Remember when we were all frustrated with hatching? Way back when...

braden H

@chrisaakins I'm gonna check out that course sooner rather than later!

I think from day to day I'm gonna pick a texture to work on and apply it to all the shapes.

Maybe I'll make the shapes bigger...

Erin.Cortese

@burvantill I know what you mean about the gophers, this summer I found myself yelling at rabbits for stealing my pea seedlings. I probably sounded like a maniac!

Erin.Cortese

@chrisaakins Wow, thanks for sharing! I follow Bryanthegirl and absolutely love her work!

Erin.Cortese

@Bricz-Art Thank you, this is the first time I have been committed to working at the same task in illustration every single day!

Erin.Cortese

Round 2 texture...
These exercises are all referenced from the aforementioned book, wish I could say they were my own. It has been really great to work from reference, it frees up my brain to really zone in on the line work!

Keep messing around with the sumie brush. There is a lot of different textures can be achieved, and I am scratching the surface of it.
These are from yesterday and today.

ArtofAleksey

@Erin-Cortese you should draw yourself yelling at rabbits. Rabbits are conspiring against all of us i tell you!

Yeah im definitely gonna check out that hatching course. Right now im penciling comic trying to stay ahead of inktober at the same time.

@Aleksey :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes: I agree, they are taking over my neighbourhood
