Gesture Class 7
It's been a few weeks so I made time yesterday for Gesture Drawing class. I couldn't stay for the duration so I didn't get to sketch a lot. And since i've been doing a lot of drawing lately in Photoshop, I stuck with it and gave Sketchbook Pro a little hiatus.

I am soooo ridiculously jealous of you guys' figure sessions. Great drawings.
sooo good.
Awe man, I miss life drawing and gesture classes. Thanks fot the inspiration...I hope to start attending some life drawing classes soon.
FREAK'N AWESOME sketches Louie!
Are you doing these on your ModBook? Or is traditional media?
I love the pics of the figures in sequence. Almost looks like a story/animation to played out.
How long are these poses anyway? 5 minutes, 2 minutes....?
Great sketches. Very alive and appealing.
beautiful drawings!!
Thanks everyone for your kind comments! Gesture drawing is pure fun and I'm glad to share it here.
These where 3 minute poses sketched on my Modbook using Adobe Photoshop. I added tones afterwards.
You've got some great sketches on this here blog, my friend.
Hey man! I saw your interview on Character Design blog... Great stuff my friend! Your line work is superb! Keep up the great work!
Cool! So which do you prefer to digitally draw with? Photoshop or Sketchbook Pro? (apologies if you covered this on a previous post...i didnt catch it yet)
Thanks so much William, Darren and Chris. I really appreciate the kind comments. I like both Photoshop and SBP for different reasons so I'll keep bouncing from both programs. It really depends on what I'm sketching.
If I know I might be coloring the sketch afterwards I usually sketch in Photoshop. Plus the modified brush I am using also simulates pencil or graphite really well. For just getting ideas in a line art form, SBP is simple to bring up and work on without much fuss so I'll usually work in that program.
But like anything I do, there's no real deliniation so it's all on gut feeling as well.
Look, I've resisted the urge to say this for a long time... but I can't hold back any more:
YOU CAN DRAW BETTER THAN ANY HUMAN SHOULD BE ALLOWED! YOU DON'T NEED TO TAKE CLASSES, DAMN YOU!!!! DAMN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*Sigh*... and now you'll say something modest and wise like "But you should never stop practicing" and you'll be completely and utterly right... but that's no help to lazy people like me who dream of a magic fairy who will one day grant them the powers that you possess as the result of years of hard work and, thusly, relieving me of the guilt that comes from watching hours of violent anime and playing XBOX live.
I guess what I'm trying to say is:
Nice drawings.
(thanks again for the DVD)

Hey John,
On the flipside I quite envy you for the enormous hours of sheer fun, blasting away with impunity and without consequence on many a video game... Your reflexes must be off the charts!!. The CIA could probably use your services at this point.
We had fun at your party so thank you for having us. Ghost in the Shell SAC is modern classic so I'm glad you like it.
