Join us in the Anime Study Discord: https://discord.gg/3bwdfRk We’re starting a weekly group study: >>3350978 similar to /AQT/ with pic related. Feel free to post in this thread as well.

Info:
The task here is to do multiple studies of the selected reference image. These studies can include making exact copies by drawing what you see, measuring, using construction, continuous line drawing, tracing, grid drawing, etc. You should also do partially completed drawings like breaking the reference down into 2D/3D shapes, drawing individual parts of the image, breaking down the image into its values, colors, positive/negative shapes/silhouette, etc. In addition, you can find a related method or tutorial (it could be realistic or stylized) that you can immediately apply to the reference to give yourself more direction.

Don’t copy the reference mindlessly. Think about the process as if you were creating an original piece. Be constantly conscious about how your whole drawing is fitting together and how it compares to the reference. Be loose (while still being mindful) with your drawings and while you should take it slow with your analyzing, try not to spend too much time on any one drawing so that you can get a good number of iterations done over the week. Be sure to show some of your process so that other people can better help you and so that all of us can learn from each other.
