Description Finally finished the 1000 heads sketchbook a few days ago. This is the comparison between #4 and #997. If I was to give any advice for people interested in trying something like this it would be: instead of 1000 do 100 but really focus during each one and make sure you understand the forms before you move on. I rushed through a lot of heads just because I wanted to get it done and I probably learned nothing through that. For the ones I did focus and take my time, I noticed my understanding grew. So good luck and if you have any questions feel free to comment here and I'll make sure to respond

Great job! I will probably do the same thing, it's a great way to practise. I'll see if I'll post any but for now, I'll practise. Thanks for the inspiration and great job, the improvement is clearly visible.Β

Congratulations! I already told myself that I am going to finish the thousand heads but am taking it slower now. I got the first hundred or so done very quickly but didn't learn anything. And in a year I now made it past 550 but might take a lot longer finishing the rest XD. But well done! It must feel amazing knowing that you completed all of it and it looks like you learned quite a bit

Awesome! I noticed you're painting each of them in values which is even more impressive. What matters is the improvement not the number. The number just gives you a goal to reach but you're definitely benefiting so far

Thank you! I couldn't agree more. The number just adds a little bit of motivation.
