Thought I'd start my sketchbook thread. I've been lurking around CA for awhile (even with an account!), and have been meaning to take my studying more seriously.
Here's a couple i did recently.




the one above took 30 min. i think I was working too fast and didn't get the structures down. I had alot of trouble figuring out how to render his shirt since he wears the shoulder armor UNDERneath and there are bumps that stretches out his shirt.

some of these are more finished pieces than sketches since they take me around 1-2 maybe 3 hours to do. Is that ok to post them here or should I only post quick works?
