Sterling Tian Week 5

Tried to push planes and contrast on this one.

LP Study Wk 10 1st Tonal Pass

Now that I feel that the lay in is nailed down.  I can start adding tone.
I'm focusing more on the stuff in shadow so I'll be keeping the light side simple.
If I render both sides, the image will get busy.  It's a balance of simple and complex.

Sterling Tian Week 5 (2.5 hours)

This is 2.5 hours in.  I'm going at this with emphasis on planes and contrast.  I put an hour into the lay-in and I just couldn't take it anymore and threw down some tones.  I did a little rendering here and there, but I'm trying to keep that at a minimum for now.

I hope ya'll don't mind, but I'm going to do two long poses this week to make up for me not doing one last week.

 Criticism at this point of the process is highly appreciated!

LP Study WK 10 Lay in

Something I'm thinking about more now.  How muscles work together to create
natural rythms.  Muscle groups in the arms tend to go towards the head.
I'll probably spend more time on designing the lay in.  Here's the basic idea.
( Keep in mind that as I do this, I'm still making sure I make form notes.)

Sterling Tian Week 4 Finish

I'm lagging a little behind on these.  I'll get to work on another before the week ends.  Any criticism helps!  I feel like I'm loosing direction...
