Life and Sketches

Been trying to tone down on detail lately. Tim, wants me to let parts of the face/figure be drawn a bit looser than what I usually push for. Its a bit of a trip up for me mainly because I don't feel confident in where or how I should be abstracting the subject with my charcoal just yet, but I have my hopes up. Also, more work for Illustration 4, mainly sketches for a young-adult fantasy novel of a squire who steals the sword and armor of his master to do battle with the servants of a twisted god, trying to free him from an ancient crystal. The painted final will be up next week.
