Practice Pieces

Some practice pieces I did i had no reference for the glass ball i just winged it

I was going to post this a week ago but i saw a another artist post avocados and they defiantly used the same reference as me.

Anyway check out elvaira.gromova much better interpretation of them here: My Food Sketchbook

I found the reference image!!!

And lastly my speedpaint videos for these two drawings:

Haha thanks for the tag! :avocado: Guess we all got inspired by the same avocados at some point :sweat_smile: Your glass ball looks really interesting, by the way — did you run into any challenges while making it?

Thank you! Also are you talking about challenges with the avocados or other one?

The challenges i had with the avocados was getting a nice smooth shape because i was using a textured brush to get a grainy look to them. Also the shading a lighting was hard for me especially with that dib in the second it was hard to get that shadow right to have that effect. My shadows under them could have been blended more and smaller. Oh and the pit just is to round and stand out to much. But overall I’m happy with it because i stepped out of my usual and did something different.

I really loved your and how smooth it was looked very tasty.

I also use textured brushes quite often. For blending I usually go with the Blender Basic brush from the default set, but I set the opacity to around 15% or so — that way it helps to mix the colors more smoothly. You could give it a try, maybe it will help :slightly_smiling_face:
