Too static and not too static
/The sketch on the right was my fourth attempt to draw the orange tabby shrugging her shoulders apologetically. I changed my strategy with the picture on the left and sketched with a fuzzy brush, which the Clip Studio Paint “design pencil” is. Fuzzy is better, in this case.
The foreshortening of her hands was the most difficult part of the sketch. When I realized I was floundering, I took some photos of myself doing her pose. I have to keep reminding myself to obey the rules I make for myself, the first of which is, Before sketching get some good reference photos.
