Drawings from research

While reading How to draw the marvel way by John Buscema and Stan Lee I learned soooooo much! This was one of the best books I read for helping me learn to draw better.
My faces became more realistic as I learned the proper proportions and the triangle technique which is how you place features on the face. I thought that was so clever and it really did make my drawings better!
This is really good reference for figuring out face angles which is something that I struggle with so I saved it as a note and also practiced to see if i could even copy images like this and still have them look right.
 I also learnt about action poses and how to use shapes to build them up. I am still learning about this but I think I am better than I was.

I used all the techniques I had just learnt in this book to create a picture of Catwoman. I used the shapes to build up her body and then the triangles to do the face. I was so impressed with myself! These tips really do help!!
