Could you perhaps draw a much more simple unshaded full body soldier standing in a relaxed pose from front, side, and back views for a 3D model refference? Amazing Work
Note: By relaxed i mean shoulders back, arms at sides, and standing straight up.... wearing full gear if you could.... No need to shade or draw the camo on just outline his body, gloves, gear, ect... contact me if you will do it

I've a question: Doesn't white chalk gets smudged easily after the drawing is completed?
π: 0 β©: 1
naturally yes, however I blend the chalk like I would with graphite so that the chalk is integrated with the paper..... that, and i've got to be careful with the final product lol

I see, that makes sense though
Do you frame them by the way? Or how do you keep them
I've trouble storing them properly, I don't want them to touch anything (each other)

It's always good to frame your work. Regardless of chalk, I always try to keep my originals in a plastic sleeve; you can buy a portfolio book of pretty much any size at Michaels or Hobby Lobby. However, if you want to keep artwork inside of the original sketchbook without smudging, simply placing glossy photo paper or a plastic sleeve in between each drawing should do the trick. Another method would be to spray liquid polyethylene (rubber) on the drawing itself. This also prevents smudging and protects your drawing, however with this method; large globs of polyethylene may show up on your drawing. I don't recommend this for graphite but it works well with chalk, charcoal and pastel artwork.

Thanks, they're good advice! I use fixative, but it can still smudge. I've bought simple clip frames just so I can store them seperately, time will tell if they work (as the glass touches the artwork, which doesn't happen with my few others that I could properly frame)

Perfect..
Awesome details on the Carbine!
Most people don't know shit about recognizing weapons.You maybe should have removed the carry and mount the ACOG on it,thats mostly the standard of todays soldiers.
