Regarding drawing, I’m going to quit doing CG for awhile. I’m very frustrated right now because coloring technique cannot mask flaws in the fundamentals. So, instead, I’m going to sit down and force myself to sketch portraits using non-mechanical pencils, *using references* instead of memory/imagination, until I understand how to really draw people. I’m sure you’re all sick of my ill-proportioned drawings, too.
Then, I can focus on getting the CG to imitate paint, instead of pushing it around to cover up anatomical errors, which smudges all the colors and ruins any effect that had been generated earlier.
