Creature Box

I was observing some of the more recent posting on Creaturebox, and I noticed that they pick some really random themes to use for their beasts. The most current included Drapery & Ugly Man Toes! I thought that this was pretty intriguing, so I might just have to include some crazy themes in my creations. They also use a loose drawing technique before inking their drawings. I have yet to use the inking process, but I have constantly been using a loose drawing technique.

Much better results than when I used to draw really strict & tight.

Ted Beargeon

I have recently talked to the awesome artist Ted Beargeon on CGHUB, and he responded to my posts fairly quick. I asked him if he had any tips to give me for drawing very realistic human faces. His answer was to look at a ton of reference images of people. Not just ordinary people, celebrities and famous people. This seems to run true across everyone that I have talked to that both Life Drawing & Reference are key to improving your techniques as an artist!!!!!

Thanks for the responses Ted!
