Such a great tutorial. Looking forward to sketch it tomorrow. Scottie, what is that grey round thing in your water jar?

Good morning or maybe evening to you?.?. Was thinking with the Olympics starting- we could sketch some winning moments of action in the various sports. Don’t know might be fun maybe medal podium moments too? Just an idea

Kerstin

Dear Scottie Really loved your details and the way you taught us the shape and proportion. Feeling happy that I am a member of the group.

Jillanne

I did this almost 2-year old tutorial today and loved it. More of these motion sketches, please! I posted it in the community chat. I had some hickups, but am glad that I didn't start over. I also experimented with different colors of shadow. While the purple/blue color always seems to look good on your sketches, on mine it doesn't. So, I thought I could try a darker version of the main background color, like yellow with paints grey on the yellow clothing. What do you think about that? Or is it better to stick to one shadow color throughout the sketch?
