I'm stuck between rendering styles! Sometimes blending alot or sometimes leaving the edges blended lightly.

This was my first go. I tried again traditionally but thought this would be easier to upload!

Heres my assignment including the big page for the level 2 portion. Let me know what you think! Thanks!

I cant believe I thought the neck was aligned prior to putting it in photoshop lol. Help.

Im about to put it in photoshop to see how off it is. WIsh me luck. Update: Im bad at angles.

Reference images are from Dustin Blaise at creatureartteacher incase anyone is wondering. First two drawings are level 1, then some extras, and finally playing around with the shapes of the rooster for the level 2 assignment. Let me know if you have any suggestions/critiques. Thanks!

Some Glen Keanes and one David Malan! My drawing style tends to be more loose so I almost lost my mind with the David Malan study but i think it was very valuable to do. Let me know what you think I could improve on.

The "warm ups" I went off the page on the spider hand, it is one of my bad habits.

Tried doing an entirely different pose from the references. Inspiration comes from my cat being a dork with a string on her tail. Images are of a river otter!

Great course definitely can see improvement in my work just from following along in the workshops!

It's so refreshing to hear a professional talk about the struggles that can happen during the drawing process. I think a lot of us students have the idea that making mistakes or struggling with a part of a drawing makes us an amateur that is not ready for professional work when in fact this happens to everyone. Great lesson!

Struggled with the background a bit without using charcoal powder. Had a great time in this class! Critiques or comments are welcomed!

hello everyone! These are some gestures I worked on tonight along with the video. I started implementing the practice tips recommended here by @Jesper Axelsson and doing the gesture on my own without the example, then along with Stan and then attempting to do the gesture like Stan again without the completed example. Trying to make less messy lines, and find that my proportions keep stretching, might need to revisit the drawing from the shoulder video. Any feedback is appreciated!
