New Sketch

By:- sptrop
Hello friends I'm back with another sketch. This time I tried to keep things simple as last time I was kind a get messed up, but it's really looks kind a bit empty. I will may tray, few things with it later. I completed this piece in just one day, unlike my previous one (3 days) but I get messed up as well, especially with her face. I really think I have a long way to go with faces specially while drawing a whole body portrait. I don't understand! When I practiced face in parts they came out pretty well, but when I put all together I get messed up. Even in this sketch I don't know how many time I redraw the face, but still, it's not even near to be good. Only off thing I can tell about my sketch is its face.

 

My Planes To Improve Portraits

I have decided to learn only faces for next 30 days But the question is how and from where I can learn. Being a self learning artist is itself a challenge. Basically, I want to say, I have no one to tell my mistakes or tell me what could better my artwork. This problem, I can't overcome, but I believe that this makes me unique as well. Keeping this in mind, I thinking to take some guidelines from YouTube then I will try to mold it in my style of artwork. I will also do some re-sketching of some of my favorite creatures, but those I may or may not post on social media.

I have planed to practice only guidelines for next 10-15 days and then I will complete my 30 days with practicing full faces. As I think I have already practiced a lot with individual parts, therefor I will be going for the whole face in this entire process.


Result

I will make sure to update the result here or I will provide the link of that blog here. Lets wait for the result and see what happens.


It's been 17 days of my challenge and I have basically practice front and side profile only on my first week I just searched a lot of videos or reference from where I can learn. Basically, I wasted My lot of time there and then I find one video who was telling the proper basics and then I decided to practice the anatomy in week days and make sketches of that anatomy in a weekend.

The Video I Found




Week 1

On week one I started with the front face profile anatomy and I think that was easy I won't get any trouble with that  a weekend I searched for some reference in pexels.com and draw this. I think it turned out good. I'm happy with my progress if I compare it to my past self what do you think.

On week two I started practicing the side face profile anatomy. This week was a bit trouble some for me. Will, I was practicing I some time felt like I'm doing something wrong like some time my face look longer or nose not look like as it should be but when I draw the final sketch it turned out good and here it is.

Final Sketch

I was having my semester exam so I wasn't able to practice the face structure much, but after the exam I did practice some and I'm ending it here. In this process I really get to learn a lot of things and by the end, I don't mean that I won't practice anymore, I still need to perfect my lots of things but I'm finishing my challenge here. Now I may practice few different stiles or medium. To stay updated keep in touch with me in my social media.

Predicting Your Portfolio's Future: Unveiling the Code Hey financial wizards and data enthusiasts! Today, we're diving into the world of Python and portfolio prediction. We'll be dissecting a code script that helps you estimate the future risk and return of your investment choices. But first, a disclaimer: Predicting the market with absolute certainty is a fool's errand. This script is a tool to inform your decisions, not a magic crystal ball. Now, let's crack the code! The script utilizes the nselib library to access historical stock data from the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE). Here's a breakdown of the key functions: format_data : This function takes a list of stock symbols and retrieves their closing prices for the past year. It then cleans and formats the data into a Pandas DataFrame for easy analysis.

Kazam Video Error SOLLUTION | Video Codec Error SOLLUTION | Fix Codec Error: H.264 video editing on Windows. | Not Playing in other Platform (Windows/Android)

Codec Error I was using Kazam to record my Kali Linux screen and exported the recordings to Windows for editing, as Linux isn't as robust for video editing. The editor was throwing a codec error because the recordings were in H.264 (.mp4) format. Kazam doesn't offer much flexibility to change codecs, so manual re-encoding was necessary. This codec error isn't exclusive to Kazam recordings. Other videos in the same format might encounter similar issues and can likely be resolved with the same solution. Solution I re-encoded the video files using FFmpeg. To streamline and automate the process, I created a Python script to re-encode all video files within a specified folder. You can find the code and explanation below.   Installing Dependencies Make shoure to have all the required pakages sudo apt update sudo apt install ffmpeg   Code Explanation This Python script is designed to process video files within a specified directory. It performs the following tasks: Prompts for In...
