I will. :)
Basically with me having 5 other family members I tend to not have much time alone to study nude models, as my parents will get a whole other idea about what I am doing, and with the economy even if my parents would let me have classes I doubt we could afford it. Also please Snaf I hope you are kidding about wooden figurine, will not go near those.
Use guidelines and perspective lines maybe. Although an object this close probably wont need perspective lines.
Why not? Are you too much of a snob or something? Here's a pro-tip: if you can't get human proportions correct, anything you design around human use has a ridiculously high chance of being disproportionate.Quote:

They're not dolls, they're tools. Use them.
Snaf, please do not draw conclusions about me being a snob, when you have no ideas about my personal life and how the people around me would react to such a thing as that.
Yeah manQuote:

No telling how many friends you'd lose with one of these creepy 6-inch things around. I know my dad would throw me out of the house if he saw one of them.
Okay ladies. Lets calm it here. (Excluding teh lag who posted in about 0.1 Seconds before me)
Seriously chains, what kind of doll do you think it is? Besides, it's so small you could hide it when you had company over.
My family is not exactly supportive of what I do, ok, this would only bug them more, thank you for the help, but keep it to stuff that can be on my screen that I can look at while they're not around.
They are not suportive that you are teaching your self an Art which may gain you money in future life? Well, my family dont really understand what I do, or what it can help with. So if I should them a model they are like "Well done, looks good". Lol. Just to shut me up.
Explain to your family about why and what you are doing.
Going bed now, NightNight. :)
I don't know if you're referring to the nude models or the wooden figurine. If it's to the wooden figurine, well, if people around you react adversely to that, they need to be medicated.Quote:

Honestly, you have potential, but potential isn't anything without putting it into practice, and practice is nothing without observation.
You'll get it some day.
