So to keep it short today I sat down to complete a Draw Box Challenge. This time I drew from the box and got a character! Lucky for me I've recently been practicing skin, unfortunately I didn't even use those techniques on the painting below, outside a better understanding of the fundamentals below is just a single brush and a bit of sweat. Originally the draw boxes are aimed at two hours, in that time I had the sketch down and a rough value lay in. Three hours later, and the Eerie Fortune Teller is complete!

| Simple painting, no references used. Being a fan of fantasy, I found inspiration in Everquest's Erudites. Big freaky fore-headed magic users. |
I may go on to add color into the painting just for the fun of it later tonight. Still have another practice to complete for tonight before I can officially shut my brain off.
My later practice box challenge is on vehicles, and it's a master study. Never seen anyone do a master study on that subject, but I at least have a good subject. I'll be checking out Scott Robertsons work along with some of his awesome youtube videos. Already delved into one and gained a simple but useful idea of "P.S.D" meaning Proportion, then Surface, and Detail. A quick rule to follow when designing!
Thanks all, that's it for tonight!
