By Dustin's recommendation I did these 15 min. photo studies.Below them are some quick little 5 or 10 min vehicle sketches that I did yesterday and I'm now seeing how many different ways I could do them better to show their material and everything.I think the number one weakness I have with vehicles and buildings is just plain lack of familiarity with them. It sure is hard to capture the essence of something in a few strokes if you really don't even know what it looks like. Expect more vehicles from me in the future I guess!Comments and crits always welcome.
Also--one of my concept art/illustration heroes, Jaime Jones of artpad.org , just posted a little process thing on his blog that I quite enjoyed just because to me it reinforced in my mind that everybody works differently. Enjoy!
