Well, this is my first time to post and participate in any forum (apologise beforehand if the images don't show up, can't see them in the preview).
My plan for the day was to start at the Parc de Ciutadella, pass through Born and finish up at the Plaza de la Cathedral (the unexpected heat on the day didn't form part of the plan!). The following are some of examples of the days sketching. Let's see if the next time I can round up some company.

Fourth one is the best, great lines, maybe you don't need washes. As for posting, you should put direct links between [img]and[/img] tags next time. Cheers!

Thanks for the comment Mr.Sch, very much appreciated :) . I usually try to put tones when possible as I feel it's one of my weak points when it comes to doing it from imagination but yeah, maybe I shouldn't do it on all drawings, might even allow me to get more sketches done. Thanks for helping to solve my technical problem with posting the images, looks like it's working now. Cheers!

Thanks for your comment Killmax. Yeah, I work as an animator. Finding great inspiration here on the board. Really like your watercolours on the Firenze post.



Hi ChristinaA. Glad you liked the drawing of that lady. She kind of stood out in the crowd, although I did exaggerate her hair a bit ( just a bit :) ). Love your combination of lines and tones on the Nora post.

Thanks for the comment, Joan. I usually work with lines but would like to try more stuff with colour.Looking at every bodies colour work on the board is really inspiring.

Great sketches! I enjoyed your landscapy ones, but I like the people ones best - you captured their body language very well.
