Figure Drawing Progression: torso.

[zinlim]

It's plaster torso drawing in step by step breakdowns. You can find which principle I apply each stage.

• Size: 24Hx18W inch.
• Medium: Willow charcoal stick and general charcoall penciils on medium tooth paper.

STAGE 1
Positioning simple shape of torso with light lines.

STAGE 2
Refining outlines and dark value on the most important part of this composition.

STAGE 3
Various mid tone values.

STAGE 4
Darkened shadw for higher contrast.

STAGE 5
Dark tone on backgroung in order to make light part of torso pop out.

STAGE 6
Refining detail.

I'll post more progression references and welcome for any questions. Thanks. 😊

Very cool. The way you handled how light interacts with the edge of a shadowed, curved surface is impressive: )

Looks like something very difficult. What elements were the most difficult for you to draw?

[zinlim]

Almost everything
