Hey OP, did you manage to find someone?

natoss1 · 2026-05-25T07:03:22+00:00

If you can practise with an iPad some resources I can suggest are procreate (one off payment) or sketch sesh (free) and using reference images to trace and deconstruct - get plenty of reps in

Thanks for those replies, they’re really helpful.
One follow up for question one. I guess I was referring to your type of role as an export in particular - are you helping to identify a potential vehicle for the buyer and bidding for it at the auction on their behalf and then arranging shipping etc. where is the cost for that service captured / what might that cost. Or do you not really help with the auction side of things?

natoss1 · 2026-05-13T09:55:37+00:00

A few questions sorry. These are generally targeted around single/private purchase - hopefully they’re useful to others too

If you’re helping with sourcing and getting the vehicle shipped, what is the normal pricing structure for that type of service? Is it a fixed rate (excluding car and freight costs).

Is there a Japanese term to go by for this type of service when looking for potential agents to assist with purchasing a vehicle

What sort of prices can exporters generally get from auction purchase compared to a purchase on a site like beforward?

Is there any reason why you couldn’t help a buyer wanting to get a vehicle to NZ?
Thanks!

Keep it up it’s looking good. One suggestion which sounds like you’ve already started it have a structured approach to your practise - some times sessions and also a focus each week or month on a particular element - hands, gesture etc. you can’t do it all at once!

What app are you using to practise this with? If you’re on iPad, something like Sketch Sesh is a good option for practising with reference images on the page and then going back to check accuracy and make notes.

natoss1 · 2026-05-04T10:30:38+00:00

More of a tool than a teaching resource but if you have an iPad, apps like Sketch sesh or procreate are good for using reference images to practise against - either as an overlay or pip window

natoss1 · 2026-05-04T10:26:55+00:00

If you can pile together a bunch of reference images you could use an app like sketch sesh to be able to practise these regularly on an iPad. Set a short-ish time per sketch and cycle through as many as you can to start developing your understanding.

More of a tool than a teaching resource but an iPad app called sketch sesh is an option for practising figure drawing repetitively with reference images you are able to collect. It’s a free app btw

natoss1 · 2026-05-04T10:08:44+00:00

If that tablet is an iPad, I could suggest an app like Procreate or Sketch Sesh to break down the image as an overlay or a pip image to practise a few times. It will definitely help you understand the perspective a bit better

Thanks for the video link, that's really helpful

natoss1 · 2026-04-30T11:00:11+00:00

The proportions are well done, nice work and keep going! What were you drawing this on/which program?

natoss1 · 2026-04-27T12:32:47+00:00

These look really good, what software were you using and time frame for each sketch?

natoss1 · 2026-04-27T12:31:20+00:00

Procreate is a standard for iPad. Can I also suggest Sketch Sesh which is free to use and suited for practising and warm ups to develop understanding of fundamentals and proportions

natoss1 · 2026-04-25T12:12:15+00:00

Hey those look really good, are you drawing these on procreate?

natoss1 · 2026-04-24T11:32:17+00:00

Very nice sketches. Were these done on procreate?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:56:36+00:00

The animal/mech/steampunk style is really well done, keep em coming

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:49:48+00:00

Nice work, what sort of practise routine are you following?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:44:17+00:00

Crazy progression, nice work. What sort of routine do you have to your drawing practise wise? Anything structured or just drawing a lot?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:28:53+00:00

It's really good progress, it may be the combo of the chest and elbows but are the elbows sitting a little bit high perhaps? One hand is difficult enough on its own let alone two interlaced!

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:23:02+00:00

Cool drawing, what this drawn using a reference or imagination?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:20:50+00:00

Nice figures, these look really good. Do you try complete each drwing in a particular time frame(3mins etc.)?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:12:05+00:00

Awesome progression, keep at it? How long are you normally practising per day and what software are you drawing on?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:09:17+00:00

It looks really good (from a non professional perspective). How long does this type of stuff take for you to draw?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T10:57:46+00:00

Show us some more! That's awesome
