Attempt to draw T-Rexes from imagination. Blue sketches were drawn from observation at the beginning. Btw I love the Jurassic series for so many years, eventually I get done with a dinosaurs sketch from imagination. Not one ,but three. It was a challenge.

Hello everyone:) Tried to do this task also with different characters

Hi Everybody. As indicated in a previous comment, I am lagging a bit behind. Without any much searching I opened google and typed in american black vulture for references. I have a story in my head about a vulture (I have one in my backyard that has been around since 2011). So I was drawing loosely from reference and life. Sketching. I have not made the final final character just yet but I am playing with their poses. The vulture I have in mind is not at all evil. He is just a sissy. All the ladies are bigger anyway, but he actually likes humans so he is a bit weird. His skin on the head and the way it hangs reminds me of the wigs that were worn in courts so maybe I am going to make him a judge... He is a loving husband and a loving father too... But really too sweet for this world. He lets a yellow headed cara cara steal his food.

My first "sketch from imagination". I was quite happy with the result but after watching the demo I realise I didn't do the exercice at all... just mixed two images together. Let's try with another animal and a better approach!

Tried sketching a skull. :D

Practicing to sketch hands with “The Thing” (in German it is “Das eiskalte Händchen”)

I have a commitment issue. I have been late in every assignment. Just trying to be more committed. I draw a character based on this reference. I love country life so I wanted to draw a simple farm boy, and his simple living. Hope i did good this time.

first I tried rabbits ,now chicks. I found the chicks easier

Tardigrade, but kinda morphed into a caterpillar centaur.

I can't seem to start the line tapered. Ending a line tapered is easy as you flick the pencil of the page but how to start it?

Thank you Stan! I got a lot from this demo: look for rhythm, group features, think about the subject, oppose corners for structure to curves for gesture, starting boxes with cylinders - and use a not too sharp pencil :)

now that they're all up they look a bit basic and unimaginative. I should try again

Assignment 3 - draw from imagination I drew a character based on the wandering sea anenome - it’s an anenome, when asleep, that looks like a ball of baked beans. This character is curling her tentacles with hair rollers, and passing the time on her waterproof phone.

Another submission using a bug.

Level 1 student tries - a lot of lost lines and fun the some relaxed pigs!

I’m definitely a ‘lost lines’ by default but it does really help to quickly express and refine ideas. One question - when moving from the neater searching lines to clean lines, would you always need to trace (light table or scan and digitize) or do clean lines come for an entire drawing with ease once you get the experience? If the default is trace how do you not lose the dynamic line quality? Nice video to show the options 👍

Here are my sketches. The girl will not get an award in likeness - but I think the pose is more dynamic.

cat with an attitude :)

Hello! I decided to try my hand at baby goats. I don't draw animals often so it was a bit of a challenge.
