 A quick study.  Something I have not had time to do in a while.  I was really busy combined with a hard drive failure meant there is not a lot I have to share this week.  
Below are a smattering of character sketches I did during the character design sprint I did in August.  All were from D&D prompts.

Another week and more ink studies and its Inktober.  I am just about able to keep up with these so I am going to forgo the Inktober prompts and keep going with the themed studies. This is almost the last of the landscapes.  I am switching over to vehicles - my least practiced theme.

Casino

Town centre

Large hall

Tree House 

Still deep in bigger projects.  Progress is slow. Here are some more landscape sketches.  Sticking to routine of prompt and working on them for about 30 minutes.  Lots of buildings here.  Next task to practice cleaner lines when executing these.

A lot of work this week but work is still in progress.  Above is a study prompt from Bjorn Hurris' stream.  Tried to give the sense of light and dark.  It kind of follows on from the previous study.  
  Below is a work in progress.  Really stretching on this one so we will see how it turns out.  There have been a few modifications of this draft but the overall composition remains the same.

Prison

Market

Portal 

After RuoLi  

This is a selection of landscape sketches.  They are about 30 minutes each done with pen and ink in response to a random prompt.  This is to practice getting landscape ideas down.  I will start to work on composition and values.    

The last is a copy of an oil painting After RuoLi who manages to create amazing textures. It was interesting to do something like this after concentrating on working with linework for so long.  It was done just by painting.

 So a week of probably the most diverse set of arty activities in a while.  This month is about trying stuff out of my comfort zone and doing studies which it turn out is hard work.  I started a lot of projects these are some I finished so far.
