D&D Sword Studies

Some studies I did for a low level sword used by my ranger. Gonna pick a few and do some more exploration.

Lessons In Sketching: Reference & Life Studies Will Save Your Life

So I am working on visualizing my D&D character and I decided to do his pet first. For context, his pet is a dire rat that plays checkers. Below is some embarrassing stuff that taught me some important lessons. I started off thinking that I could jump straight into drawing Checkers. It didn't go well right from the start and I got frustrated. I then took a step back and asked "what does a rat look like?" Pulled some ref and just did some studies. I failed again by not asking the same question for what does stylization mean... In the end I learned the importance of study and reference. I also spent some time reading books about studio drawing and form.
