For the sake of me couldn't focus on work at all today. So I stopped in the afternoon, and instead ADHD hyperfocused on making a comic for a world building concept I've had for years. Like, one hour layouting the first four pages, and then 5 or more hours drawing only the first two. Incredibly proud of the results, but damn...
Done
I no longer have the luxury of time I had over the weekend, so I couldn't do as many. But except for the initial circle (and some other stuff on the right most one) , everything about these is free handed. And while it is a bit wonkier, I'm actually really happy.
Realized that one big mistake I made yesterday was rotating the plane marking the side of the head, rather than just changing it's angle against the y-axis (technically, that's also a rotation. But whatever.) so I tried again with the face pointing more and more to the right. And then I flipped over the paper, and started it all over. This time with more circle and ellipse guides and rulers. Still struggling a bit with the looking down faces this way, but it's sooo much better now.
Tried this, without reference. Just systemically doing the angles. And some of them are good. And some of them are ridiculously bad. Especially the six in the bottom-center.
It seems something inside my brain just doesn't want to continue the anatomy tutorial. So I'll stop waiting for the moment where I want to continue it, and start the head tutorial instead.

beautiful! love the 2nd page - the way it takes a little while to spot the character at the bottom is lovely
