Sci-fi city sketch

Quick painting after David Levy's Gnomon Workshop video on speed painting and use of custom brushes. definitely awesome design tools and a way of generating ideas i hadn't thought of before but now seems so obvious. check out David's work here: vyle-art.com

Life drawing is hard. but extremely educational. light/colour/bounced light/subsurface scattering/reflections/specular highlights/proportions. I don't feel like I've nailed those things but still - these are great practice.

went for a scifi city for the first time in a while. started out using 2 photos as a base the rest is painting away. trying to incorporate some subtle colour variation here and there. I'm enjoying doing these long portrait shots - will have to start doing some more.
