3.6 Sketching with Light and Shadow

To conclude this chapter, Ramon ties together everything we've learned so far with full-value sketches.
 Always keep the big picture in mind—don't lose track of the basic concepts from earlier chapters.

Homework:
 Draw along with Ramon and apply what you’ve learned to some cast references as well.
 Create 2–3 rendered sketches, spending 1–3 hours on each.
Tip: The larger your drawing, the more time it will take. If you want to work faster, make your drawings a bit smaller.
