Here are some of mine. Was trying out Drewscape’s technique of using a midtone ink brush. I try to nail the figure with the midtones then use a black brush to secure the final shape.
Here are some drawings from saturday’s figure drawing session. Used pencil or ballpoint with gouache applied with a waterbrush and sometimes black ink. I tend to go with a contour drawing technique (seeing and following the outlines of shapes) rather than a body proportion construction technique. Seems to work better for me and keeps the figures more fluid. Please share your drawings too. Thanks to anngee for organising. ( to view the images easily cmd+click on the images )

OIC EVENT – sign up quick!
Scans from the last fig drawing session, from the 1-3 mins to the 5-10 mins poses.
Yesterday was not only my first OIC figure drawing session, it was my first figure drawing session ever. So I was totally unprepared for the break neck speed of the 1 min to 3 min warm-up poses. I think I’ll spare everyone the “exercise in futility” of the initial incomplete lines and cut straight to the more relaxing 5 min to 10 min poses heh… Thanks again to organisers and participants alike! Saw some really cool renderings yesterday, hope to see the rest of the group post them up! 
Some photos from Figure Drawing Session 03. There was too much to draw and too little time, and the model was real good!! Luckily someone took pics. Check out the photos here. ( thanks Flee and also thanks to TianYun, Twisstii, Zeropointfive and MrB and all those who helped. )
