Desenhe qualquer coisa: técnicas básicas para proporções realistas

Thank you very much for your feedback George-Daniel - much appreciated! I'm happy with everything but its legs. I'll go back and fix it when I have a sec. Cheers! :)

You have amazing colour accuracy, your bird is gorgeous. It seems like you really like playing with colour. :) Congrats

Hi there! This is my basic proportional sketch of a Blue Wren, done with a 2B pencil on tracing paper, for transfer and colourisation purposes.  My reference image is a beautiful little guy that I spotted online, so I've added the photographer's details. I'd be happy to receive constructive feedback.

Hi Linda, This is really beautiful! 
Honestly, the proportions are pretty much tracing-perfect, so I don't see anything to offer feedback on there. Well done! I'd love to see what you did next with the color!
Thanks so much for taking the class and for sharing your beautiful drawing with us!

Thank you very much Kendyll, that's amazing feedback! :) And thank you for providing such wonderfully inspirational classes - they're fantastic! 

To be completely honest, I got sidetracked with work (using my creative energy to design an album cover, album booklet and disc art for a local band) but as soon as I get back to to it, I'll certainly colour it and post it up. :)

Thanks again. 
Cheers, Linda

BTW, thank you for all the likes everyone!! :) 

I have a science background, but usually spend my time writing, illustrating and publishing children's books. I'm about to dabble in t-shirt and merchandise design too. 

It's been really great seeing everyone's amazing artwork on here. :)

Hi Kendyll, I finally revisited the greylead outline and added colour. I'm pretty happy with the outcome, and I've uploaded it here.
Thanks again. Love your work

This is gorgeous, Linda!! I love, love, love how it turned out! Color is so subjective, so it's tricky to give feedback on without knowing a specific color goal. I would say that if your goal is realism, you spend a little more time on the white/light gray feathers. I see some faint green hue in there. You could also cool down the brown in the wings just slightly, and darken the blue in the throat. 
But again, that's all predicated on you wanting this to be as realistic as possible, and that may not be your goal. It's beautiful as-is. 
Thanks for coming back to share!!

Thanks very much Kendyll - so glad you like it! That means a lot coming from an amazing artist such as yourself.
Yes, I was going for photo realism.   I think the legs were a little too purple, so I'll have a go at fixing that at some stage. 
I definitely need to improve on capturing lighter areas. It's early days (my first attempt at photo realism), so I have confidence I'll improve with time (and more Skillshare classes). 
Thanks again for taking the time to give feedback on this. Lovely stuff
