Drawing practice
well, my overseas animation director told me that almost 99% of the really good animators that he has worked with are excellent draftsmen... So, in order to improve i have decided to practice my drawing skills.
On www.cgtalk.com they have something called the Master Copy session where a master's work of art is used as reference. The reference this time was "Dante et Virgile aux Enfers" by William Bouguereau (1825-1905). This is not gay vampire porn ok! Its a respected painting by a respected painter!
Here is some info about him :

Well......whaddya think? the composition changed a bit cos my paper was a bit narrower and i didn't want to make the figures smaller...(ok ok, actually i drew the 2 foreground characters first and THEN realized ah crap! composition doesn't fit!). I'm still not too good with hands and feet as well as the general leg area so still a lot to learn. I think it looks ok so far, i mean its pretty good for my standards. My usual sketch is more like:
Anyway, time to log off. see you next update! (by "see you" i mean literally the only 1 person to read my blog...heheh)

3 words for you...
GAY... VAMPIRE... PORN...
Apart from that though, not bad. The dudes in the background are kinda looking at them funny though, like they're going "OMGWTF! I don't know you Jordan!" in which then he comforts his son and walks away slowly in fear and shame, while covering his small innocent eyes and whispers in horror "Let's go Billy, don't look... your uncle is not human anymore..."
Even the incubus in the background were looking at them in shock, cringing "dude... THAT is SO wrong!"
Or at least, that was my interpretation of your xerox. The devil himself may cry at your work Jordan... the devil may cry...
