Description
They are, too... it was years, YEARS, before I ever properly drew a human face from a low angle, looking up. Something about not being able to really define the jaw line and trying to draw nostrils, lips, eyes and so forth from below just kicked my ass. Only recently have I been able to do it somewhat consistently, and that's because I've been doing a lot of shape blocking and then adding layers and layers, and erasing and erasing and doing it all over again when I screw up.

Christ, what a bitch.

I write little notes to myself, sometimes... it helps when I think I've come up with something profound that I'll want to remember, or whenever I'm sketching while in a condition not conducive to memory retention. I hope it doesn't make me sound like an ass...

I edited the naughty words out for those who are faint-of-heart... I expect my prediliction for verbal self-abuse is mentally unhealthy.

Oh, I almost forgot... the clip in the center is from an unrelated project at the studio, and that piece was rejected before I even got past the clean sketch phase, so I slapped it on a blank spot here.
