MONTHLY CHALLENGE // foreshortening & extreme angles
Added 2024-03-01 10:00:13 +0000 UTCThis month we will be drawing people from extreme angles! This will help us to gain a better understanding of the 3-dimensional shapes of the body and head. Use the reference images provided through the links above to create some studies of heads and bodies from extreme angles. Focus on the construction of the overlapping shapes when drawing your studies!
Visit this link to find all essential info about the challenge, including:
- an overview of the challenge information

- links to resources to help you complete it
- a bonus challenge for if you have extra time

Below is the list of helpful resources that can help you complete this challenge:

It’s weird as I’m part of Lash discord and I am able to so I don’t know it’s on my end. Can I get a link again maybe I have to rejoin the discord. I see it. Just can’t add to it.
