Description You've probably noticed I've been posting less, been working on this among other things. The 14 Day Challenge by Istebrak is an art challenge where you create a face in complete grey scale without any lineart. The idea is to learn how to create better values, and render a face. I did a "test" back in January but I realized I was not ready for the challenge so I waited until November after I had done some studies and I was ready.

I never expected this much improvement from the challenge and I highly recommend everyone try it. It's very challenging, and absolutely pushes your boundaries but that's what makes for growth.

I really like your work and speed videos would be nice to see.
I'm actually trying to figure out the best video editor to use for future speedpaints myself.

I got premiere elements. its ok, but i'm used to pro.
A high light is that it comes with a music/sound effect library.

Eeeew.....
It's ok for somethings. Not everything.

How about I pull some sound files for you off my movie editor? 
They're great, and you can repeat them for an entire movie if needed.

I'd appreciate it, but you don't need to go through the work for that, I'll get off my butt and get some music. Thank you for offering though!

It's not work when it's already on a drop-box folder.

Most of these look straight up 3D, like I could rotate them and see all around them.

Nicely done.
