How to improve my rock formation sketch?
I really mountains, and rock formations. The first one is just a blocky version, to help me practice visualising the forms without any detail or shading. The one below I am trying to shade and add some detail. Difficulties I face are:
- For the rock faces that are in full light, what details can I add? I find myself just squiggling random lines on them to fill the blank space without understanding their purpose.
- Maybe the straight lines are cool for the initial block sketch, but for a more detailed version, I should use more varied lines?
Thanks! The goal is to be able to sketch mountains during a hike.
