Hi Bonfim,
These look familiar, are they etchings by the Danish painter Carl Bloch ?

They are great Claudemir, thanks.
I am starting to realise that to develop and fine tune technical skills, one has to have a very large bookcase in which inspiration and techniques can be learned from. You are very fortunate to have these at home with you. I just hope my printer will respect the quality also.

Prints!
I have a collection of Prints of Carl Bloch. They are available on ebay!
Another option is to take the jpeg images and develop them as if you were going to develop any other photograph.
If you want I can email you some of them with more pixels!

Claudemir, your offer to email them is appreciated, I am afraid my old equipment still won't do them any justice but at least I can see enough detail to get techniques clearer.
I would also like to find copies of blocking in examples for paintings by any of the masters. I heard recently that there was a Great Draughtsman Series by Henry Bonnier on Rembrandt and others, I think it was Pall Mall Press. The book is out of print. If anyone has this book, I wonder if they could place a few of these onto this forum. Apparently they have their own masterful and unique qualities the same as drawing has.

I have a virtual book called " Creative Illustration" by Andrew Loomis, it contains a page about "blocking", but the size of the book is of about 30 megabytes, so if you want I can email you the specific page. Or somebody can help me to add a link in my website so anyone will be able to download it, I have also the titles Figure Drawing, Fun with a Pencil and Drawing Heads and Hands, all of them by Andrew Loomis, I don
