Really great! I'm good at drawing various things but figures and faces are difficult for me.

@ravenwind43 thank you … I do ok on figures, but mine are always so stagnant … that’s why I chose this book to draw the next few nights from … hoping some of the movement in their drawings finds its way into the drawings I do from my own mind …

@YoungDawg66 I've tried following formulas for faces and I just cannot seem to get it down. Show me a building however and I can draw you that LOL

@ravenwind43 yeah, I’m not real good with the formulas either … I do know my weaknesses though … I draw fat noses and usually my eyes are a touch high (not enough that they don’t look real, but enough they don’t look like the person) .. so I keep that in mind and just trudge along … lol

@ravenwind43 my buildings always look like perspective drawings … accurate but boring … lol

@YoungDawg66 lol well they say the only way to get better is to keep practicing. I think my faces have gotten a little better over the years but they just tend to look like really good comics and less realistic.
