I’m learning cross hatching techniques right now…

I did a search on google for “cross hatch” and found this site. I like the way his lines follow the soft forms of the females body. I am going to use the technique and see what result it gives when I start drawing nudes again after the summer break.

A model with a more normal form!


This week the model was young and a lot more feminine than the previous nude model. Funny, but it was much harder to draw her, a leg or an arm that was too thick or fat was so noticeably wrong. I don’t know if I’m getting any better, but I feel I draw with more confidence, I just wish my technique was better. I plan to scan some of my cartoons, I’m developing a group of characters that hopefully will see the light of day soon.
