Getting ahead. Or even nine!
So, for some reason, I had never heard of Burne Hogarth until about two weeks ago! Astounding, I know. But I stumbled across Dynamic Wrinkles and Drapery and, soon after, Dynamic Figure Drawing, whereupon the thought occurred: “ZOMG I think I have a new hero.”
Anyway, I just tried one of the simpler exercises from the figure drawing book: sketching a face with consistent proportions from several angles. The results?
It has some… peculiarities, but I’m happy with it as a first attempt, and I definitely learned some things from the process of drawing it.
And now! I’m off to renew my library checkouts. I want to keep these books for a while. ♥

Hee, I hope so. He has to start living up to his name, after all.
And it is an excellent book. ♥
