Practice

So I worked on some features that I wanted to practice yesterday.

I practiced proportions using the 7 line system. With this system you draw 7 evenly spaced lines and match the proportions to them. The first line is the top of the head, the second is the chin, third is the bottom of the chest, the fourth the waist, the fifth mid-thigh, sixth below the knee, and seventh at the ankle.
From there you shape the character.
I think I made some progress in proportions, though I could definitely use work.

The second thing that I practiced was eyes. I wanted to work on the shading of them. I did 5 designs and ended up choosing one that I'll be sticking so for a while.

Finally I tested my eyes. The drawing that I did ended up smearing a little bit, but otherwise turned out alright for a practice drawing.

I'll attach the drawings in the order they are mentioned in this post.
That's all for my practice.
