There's 3 pages with chapters linked on them, when you click on a chapter link there's further pages linked inside each chapter, etc.

Hey,

http://mag.awn.com/index.php?ltype=Columns&column=vilppu&offset=20

There's 3 pages of links, that's page 3 I linked cause the book begins there and backwards to page 1.

Hey, check www.awn.com , they've got vilppu's whole book on there, along with his other sketching book. It's the same thing as the actual book hehe. Also check out www.fineart.sk if you haven't for lo ...

Artifex - I just signed up a free account at http://www.hpphoto.com , they have remote linking and have lots pace. Signing up takes a second cause you don't have to confirm any e-mail hehe. To get the ...

Ahg, overlayed them in photoshop, the jaw proportions are off, along with some other things, the top face is more close to sargent's if yo wanna see the difference from before.

Connor- the point is to be accurate with everything in order to learn how sargent/whoever handled form, details, making marks, values etc. Copying one of their works is just the best way to do learn i ...

Hey, why not start a new thread and just link to whatever other threads you think would be important. All of my images in this thread are going down this month since I'm taking down the site where the ...

I started the first one- after 4 or 5 hours of work I found a few problems hehe. I enlarged the thing 1.5 times from the original. Still not big enough to get the small variations that sargent has in ...

Ah I never thought of that, thanks I'll try it.

Following spooge's advice I bought Sargent's portrait drawings book from Dover. I began copying the first one in the book (same one as Spooge did here http://home.hawaii.rr.com/spoogestuff/copies.jpg ...

Thanks, that works pretty good for painter, gona mess with it a bit and see how accurate I can seperate 8 or 9 values from those I guess.

Impaler- Thanks, that sounds like what I want although the process is kind of long (assuming I have to keep on repeating that whenever I want 7 values for a certain color). Is there a way to script th ...

Thanks, I'll try this out and see how it is although I don't want a ramp between fore/background colors, just 6 values for one color. Not sure if this is even possible without entering some numbers in ...

www.dickblick.com is a good one

Anyone know how to configure photoshop or painter to auto-generate 6 or so values for whatever color you chose? In oil painting I can put the values beside each other on the palette or carry around a ...

Read Loomis' Heads and Hands book like andy says, there's a lot to drawing a head that's included in there. Knowing the skull's only a small part of it, there's also the planes of the face which you s ...

40 hours is what manley recommends, that's if you're really focusing, if you got a job or go to school it's hard to meet that, I'm sure there's people working that haven't done that much work for 4 ye ...

I think the idea is to be better than what's currently out there. A lot of people aren't "making it" because their work is poor, not because the job market is bad. If you're as good or better than the ...

Hehe, indeed. Actually I used perspective lines for the cylinder curve in reflection after andy pointed it out, I think it's close to accurate where it's at now, I'll double check though. The sphere r ...

Thanks suma, I spent so little time on the shadows for the rounded objects, then sat there lookin at them thinking that was too easy, gotta be somethin wrong ahh! I'll try and fix them...

Tried for marble, ended up with whatever it is hehe. After lookin at a few marble pics/paintings I think a lot of why marble looks like marble is cause ...

That makes it a lot better I think, thanks. Gonna keep that in mind next time I do that kinda surface. Going to work on a marble kinda reflective ground next. Ya I've seen the ellipse tutorial, actual ...

I think you're right, I messed with the cylinder for a long time but couldn't get it to look right, still doesn't in mine. Your diagram looks right, gonna fix that now hehe, thx.

I think doin a clear/whitish glass kinda ground was a bit too much to start, gonna try a more solid reflective surface or somethin.

There wasn't any ...

Andy/Suma- thanks, gonna fix that. Started work on a reflective surface version, definately tests your patience more than anything, oyoy..

Quickly made the back shadows more light (sry for the spam, just keepin a log of sorts heheh).

Did this one followin just under 8 value for core shadows, 6-7 for reflected light, I think just under 8 for cast shadows. No lights in dark lighter than ...

Gonna do another with shadow falling onto sphere, don't know how to do that yet. Might just estimate it..
