Yay. I've started sketching again.

This first one is a study from an artbook (I only have a few copied pages, no book title, sorry).

The bottom one is really good, I like your shading. Was trying to figure out if the grainy structure comes from the paper or the quality loss during scanning... but anyway, it's an interesting effect. :)

Btw, I'm idly thinking of maybe starting a LJ chapter of sketch crawl when I have a little more time. I figure, so many people around who like to sketch, could be fun.

Oh, thank you :) I was very happy with how that turned out.

The grainy structure comes from the scanning process - I used a 2B pencil on very smooth paper and the drawings are much finer.

I wanted to make a better quality scan, but I use the office scanner and all scans end up on the server and the network, and well ... y'know, they're nekkid pics. :)

I'm going shopping for a 1200 dpi scanner this Saturday. The office scanner is 300dpi so it should be a major improvement.
