Asked for help
The three artists I studied were Carl Rungius, Rembrandt, and Glenn Vilppu. One thing I noticed was that I seem to be losing focus by the end of my drawings and my line consistency is almost like I am a different person by the end of the drawing and the end doesn’t match the beginning.

I found the penguin somewhat harder than the others so I had to try more times. I drew the hand much faster than the other references. I am enjoying the course.

Really like your penguins

My level 2, maybe more of combining 2 images rather than drawing from imagination but I’m very happy how it turned out.

Level 1, 2nd time through. I’m still having trouble not leaving enough room on the page.

more CSI practice. I’m really struggling, not sure how to do this without plotting every point and basically doing a connect the dot or else end up with something completely out of proportion. I couldn’t add the picture, the file was too big.

Hello, this my level two, this one definitely looks a bit better than the last one, I practice further by attempting to draw this (ram/ goat??) .
I'd appreciate some critic, thanks!

Looks good, you did a really good job capturing the shape of the horns. I would say the biggest issue is that the head and neck of the bighorn sheep and the head of the camel are too small. Stan mentions in the demo how we have a tendency to make parts of familiar things too small when the references are extremely foreshortened. If you look at the picture of the sheep you will see that the head and horns are pretty much the same width as the body and probably taller, and the neck is pretty thick. That is a great picture to draw.

1st try on the skull, was going to try measuring but didn’t know where to start so I eyeballed it . I haven’t watched the demo yet, hopefully it will give me a place to start for measuring and laying out something like this.

Just watched the level 2 demo and realized I completely missed the objective of the lesson. I thought it was more simplifying and getting everything in the correct position rather then line quality. I’ll definitely be going through these again.

Day - 14 wasn’t quite sure how to show depth in the leaves with line weight. Now that I’m done I think they still look too uniform.

Day - 12 thought this would have been easier but it took me longer than expected.

1st try at the camel, haven’t watched the demo yet. I messed up the layout and didn’t leave room for the feet.

Day - 11, tried to start with strong confident lines but they were too dark and wouldn’t erase completely when I tried to correct them.

Day 7: Lulu. Struggled so hard with this one and I really don't like how it turned out. Feedback is welcome though.

Looks good! I think the reason you think it looks “wonky” is her dress may be too flat and could possibly be a little more foreshortened.

Day- 10, I didn’t want to add the shading but didn’t know how to separate the arrowheads from the surface.
