Oh hey. I have a question. Someone once told me not to draw from photos in magazines because of the lighting. How important is this really? Could I do head studies out of glamour?

The problem is that the lighting usually flattens everything out
Oh hey. I have a question. Someone once told me not to draw from photos in magazines because of the lighting. How important is this really? Could I do head studies out of glamour?
Mmmmm kind of no. The problem with them is that there's not usually a strong light source. Glamour magazines attempt to remove all of the creases and unglamorous shadows off their models faces to make them look good. It's very hard to learn the planes of the face when those magazines are trying to remove all the undesirable ones.
That being said, where does everyone prefer to get their facial reffs? I feel out of the loop.
Also, what the fuck. Srsizzy, did you just quote overemotional Green Day songs? To respond to a joke? Fo'serious?

It's called being out of the closet buddy. It's warm out here. They have cookies.

DDV if you want me to give you deep critiques in your thread just say so. I can be brutal though when I get into it so I tend to be standoffish with most people.

I'm finding that I really love bringing about awkward homoerotic discomfort.
Loomdun, you're so adorable.

I don't know man, there's a difference between being an outward homosexual and being blatantly gayer than a tree full of drunken monkeys.
You don't see me going around like, "Damn, those penises. I sure do want to have sex with them all the time."
yeah, so I'm being an outward homosexual that acts like a southern/drunken straight man. I'm okay with it.
and it doesn't take much to beat a tree of drunken monkeys.
with a club.
alternatively: teehee beat sounds like beat off.

I don't get it.
is it a sexual thing?
Mmmmm kind of no. The problem with them is that there's not usually a strong light source.

For good sources, using black and white photos of classic film stars would probably be a good source of reference. They usually have very clear lighting setups that show off the form pretty well:

Anyone remember when mods used to punish annoying people by forcing 2 people to share the same forum account?

I don't think it has anything to do with the fact that you're gay.
DAYUM, I'm outwardly straight.
