It&#8217;s been useful for generating ideas for character modelling practice which I have been keen to develop. To get a better idea of how to put my ideas across I&#8217;ve been studying sketch-style concept pieces, trying to work out just how to get a more convincing design and image, especially when it comes to the face.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe left-hand face below is when I started earlier today. Rather dissatisfied with how flat it looked. I looked online to get some inspiration, coming across a rather nice sketchy look. Using this painting as a basis I took a very different approach to create what would become the face on the right-hand side. It started with just the face, blocking out large patches of shadow and filling in the gaps with detail such as eyes, mouth and wrinkles. I thought it came out so well I tried the technique on the hair and headband, resulting in a very different hairstyle (and face) when you compare the two side by side.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjVUCgGE1hnRs5g712yOdKn50yq5rcx8nMT8nfgF4XjW6sKYKxXHUEiKicCtg_tmw0MIuY_AKw-vz1AHkM2gm6Nizmu2cQsCIYFflVhtBDLLlLmbeR010krjx3vFCWZymU-aVKYAf8zrlI\/s1600\/Markos+Demo+comparison.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"949\" data-original-width=\"1483\" height=\"408\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjVUCgGE1hnRs5g712yOdKn50yq5rcx8nMT8nfgF4XjW6sKYKxXHUEiKicCtg_tmw0MIuY_AKw-vz1AHkM2gm6Nizmu2cQsCIYFflVhtBDLLlLmbeR010krjx3vFCWZymU-aVKYAf8zrlI\/s640\/Markos+Demo+comparison.jpg\" width=\"640\"\/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\">It&#8217;s been surprising to figure our the difference comes from one afternoon of analysis.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>\nThere is still plenty to work on with the image.
