Thanks everyone for commenting. I am now on page two of the Preston Blair book Advanced Animation. I haven't been drawing that much recently so im a bit rusty.




I am really having a hard time figuring out the three dimensional shape of the dog's jowl/snout.

Sorry about the pause in Blair study (i think a month), I really want to practice the whole book. So today I did some more study! More to come.







First time drawing with a 6b pencil, really has dark lines.

Noted some of my first glance mess ups I could find. I think this whole page i goofed up quite a bit.






More to come!

So next up! I will be working on Preston Blair's book, "Advanced Animation". My plan is to do as much of the book as I can, doing many things over until I get them right.
