ALRIGHT /IC/.

I'm taking a year off from school. I plan on going into hyperbolic time chamber mode and going hard on fundamentals. I think my fundamentals are lacking to a point, and if I really want to be a good illustrator/concept artist, those need to be up to snuff.

I AM EQUIPPED WITH:
-LOOMIS
-BRIDGMAN
-HAMPTON
-VILPPU
-A SHIT TON OF ANATOMY BOOKS
-ART OF ____(LOTS OF THINGS)
-GURNEY BOOKS
-LOTS OF OTHER BOOKS, I LIKE BOOKS

I want to largely drill perspective, anatomy, and color/light/value. I'm well-aware of how each works to some extent, but these are fundamentals; I should know them backward and forward.

I'm after resources on perspective and c/l/v mostly, but I will take any and all resources. I am well-familiar with the sticky and what it has to provide, which is (largely) figurative. I have Perspective Made Easy's PDF, and might buy the book since I don't really like working from PDF (personal preference).

So, if you guys have anything, BRING IT ON. I will post a few pieces of mine, so if you have stuff that you think I should take a look at based on them, go for it.
