Drawings of the Week #22

Anatomy, composition, and my love for fantastic beings.

Tips

That I like to draw elves and/or fantastic beings I imagine you already know, dear reader. This week I decided to continue my anatomy studies and apply my style:)

Lately I've been doing fewer drawings a week because of Jobs and everything else, but the advantage is that I am trying to detail them in the best possible way and learning a lot from the process.

‍ I started the week with this sketch. I'm thinking of doing a series of drawings inspired by Greek mythology, haha. This one was inspired by the sea nymph, Calipso.
A tip: always start your drawings with light lines. Once you have everything defined, then you start shading, because if you go to shade it right off the bat and make a mistake, it is very difficult to erase it later and then you may end up blurring the drawing or even tearing the paper unintentionally;)
Almost an elf, isn't it? What can I do! I LOVE drawing pointy ears, hahaha.
Finished drawing.
This one is one of those that we started and then abandoned, hahaha, but it served its purpose, which was basically a simple study of face position.
Another sketch to study anatomy.
After leaving it defined, I decided to make an outfit for her (inspired by Elven Hero Armor from the game Elder Scrolls Online, hahaha).
Then I worked on the shadows and details such as folds of clothing, hair, etc.
Finished drawing.

And that's it for today! There will be more next week :)
