Thank you! This was from a couple of years ago and it was a bit of a turning point in how I approached portraits. So I have a special fondness for this one!
I hope this confession won't do too much damage to my reputation or alienate me from my Lemmy confederates, but... it turns out I don't actually know very much about trains.
Thank you! This was a weird one for me: I almost never draw from imagination like this, completely without a visual reference. It didn't go as badly as I was expecting it to!
On an unrelated note, I'm working my way through your suggestion Perspective Made Easy. It's absolutely mind-blowing. I used to scoff at these mediaeval artists who didn't know perspective, because how could you not know something like that? Well it turns out I don't know it either. It's absolutely revelatory.
Ha, this is great!
