Practice Practice Practice

I've taken a short break from game design to get in some anatomy and perspective practice.  I don't really like to post my practice sketches but I've been reading books from Andrew Loomis.  If anybody struggles with human anatomy and perspective and wonders why, just read his books and sketch his examples.  They're all available online here alexhays.com/loomis/

Can't recommend them enough.  Guy knew his stuff.


Also, I inadvertently broke my wife's Canon Rebel XSi digital SLR camera.  Canon wanted $200 to fix a little broken pin.  I didn't want to pay that much so Canon gave us a credit towards one of their refurbished cameras.  I upgraded to the new Canon EOS 60D.  It is absolutely incredible especially in low light.  Been playing with the new video feature too which is very much welcome.  I can't wait to get some good beach pictures with it this weekend.  

Again, if you feel that you suck at characters, its because you haven't spent enough time doing figure studies.  Pro level is achievable if you're willing to put in the time and effort.  I'll just keep telling myself that.
