Traditional Art Some croquis (slight nudity)

I think the two in the upper left are 2 minutes, rest should be 5 minutes. Not much else to say. Sorry if the contrast is low, but hopefully it isn't too bad.

 

u really shoudnt draw that in animation worksop

 

Actually, you need to be able to do stuff like this to get in. Just like you have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk, you have to learn to draw before you learn to animate.

 

If you're doing 2D animation, sure. I've always found this to be a carry over from older times though and not true for 3D. I visualize in 3D and work better with sculpting and such, however I've had to learn to draw as a requirement of animation, even though I don't enjoy it so much.

 

This is partially because most animation techniques were developped in 2D animation, and they're still used even in 3D animation. This is also probably a matter of preference, but I really find it much easier to work with an animation in 3D once I've done some rough sketches of it in 2D first.

 

Ah, can't argue with that. I'm not an animator myself though, I do 3D modeling nowadays. Nice to meet you

 

Nice to meet you too.

Well, if you're only modeling and not animating, I guess I can see your point, though I hardly know enough about modeling to know whether or not one should be to be able to draw in order to model. But, once again, I personally found that drawing the human body was a good way of studying and learning about it, but different strokes for different people, I guess.

 

whats a croquis(yes i know :stupid:)

 

Timed drawings of a model. The ones here were made in around 2-5 minutes each.

 

Ahhh, I like how you use those shapes to help you draw out the body.

I think the last time I sketched models, I didn't use them at all. Feeling like an idiot right now.
