i recently caught Rumbo Mercy's video on the 100 heads challenge, i was like, okay, i'm not doing too many physical sketches lately, and could use some retraining so i'm not so reliant on the horizontal flip tool. plus, i wanted to use a brush pen that i couldn't really get to work well for me before just to get some more practice in.

the idea is you do 10 portraits a day for 10 days.

"fuck it" i thought, "i'm not afraid of portraits" so i did 5-minute timed studies and was Immediately humbled by fucking, diffuse light.

i did do 10 of them, but decided to just do 8 per spread, tomorrow you'll see the other two and 6 more from that day's, and so on.

hoooooo boy, lots of sculptures in this one, and tough angles. it's done, though, and we're halfway there!

Bro I am getting kinda sick of drawing sculptures instead of people. Also I fucked up the numbering here again lol.

I added a little extra time to 100. No thoughts now I’m just glad to be done

Omg I saw these drawings and could tell i used the same Pinterest board a few years ago! I still did 100 portraits (but not in 10 days) but ended up picking images from other boards since I didn't like all the statues

see that's smart- the rules gremlin in me is telling me that 'maybe you'll end up liking them anyway' or 'you gotta try other styles' and it has been unpleasant every time lmao. i am soldiering through though...
