If you see anything wrong with the boxes, I'd appreciate the feedback

Level 1 first try. I realized that the center line of the box is not the center line of the head. also I have to keep foreshortening in mind when placing the lines for the nose and brow. I am aware that a lot of these boxes are not correct.
One question I still do have: how do you determine the angle of the top/bottom plane of the head or how much of it is showing. I have a hard time to judge it

Looks sick. When I did this and watched Stan's demo he mentioned that you don't have to draw exactly the geometrical shapes when you want to draw something more square, cicular or triangular. The envelope of the shape should represent a circle,triangle,rectangle but the shape itself doesn't necessarily need to be. Otherwise it looks great

I have 0.5mm mechanical pencils. Is it worth it to get me some 0.7mm and 1mm mechanical pencils. What's the difference aside from the lead width. Is the size difference significant enough to justify the investment?

i drew this as i got inspired by a creator here who made a few pic ideas post the credit to the idea goes to @Vincent Lagacé

Not a whole lot going on here, for the life of me I couldn’t figure out what to add to the room.

I'd personally pick a more extreme angle. Everything is placed on level with the vanishing point so you don't actually see a lot of the 3d form. Move the vanishing point to the left or right, so you can practive 1 point perspective better
My line quality and accuracy has gotten better. Although I'm struggling to draw doors and windows on the side walls.
Still not having fun with this project. It's mostly because my visual library for indoor rooms is pretty low, so I end up drawing the same thing over and over. I will do some 1 point perspective draw alongs and references.

well here it is

I cannot find the vanishing point. Mark it on the page. you need to trace straight lines from the VP to your boxes

Level 2 here we go. Overhand grip and 10mins. I actually like some of those I did.
How do I make women not look like men when I quicksketch. I noticed it several times but I can't put my finger on it
Any feedback would be appreciated

I really love how thorough rhythms have been explained in this section. I was struggling to really comprehend the concept in the past. So here are my level 1 rhythms. Took it very slow at first and I think naturally my timings went from about 18 minutes in the beginning and down to about 10 as I practiced. Line quality is also an issue I feel as it can get messy trying to place the lines in the right place.

Clean lines I like it. I would go for more searching line though. Imo you seem to follow the contour to much. try to see the connections between the different body parts. Your drawings look very structural. To me they feel disconnected

Second round. Still bad usage of line weight. gave myself a time limit of 5 minutes. I needed more than 5 min just to finish the pose on some of these. proportions are sometimes off but I don't hate every single pose I did

really struggled with 20-24. Maybe because the nudity is censored and I cannot really check for the rhythms

First batch. I tried gesture drawing/quick sketch once and I really disliked it but everyone said that it is important to improve. I struggled through it. I went randomly through the provided refs and used other ones as well. I got a few things I don't like/can improve upon: -> No time limit. I stopped after I thought I was done
- Line weight is not deliberate. looks more like I am sketching. I don't really how to distribute the line weight that it makes sense. I know that you can do hierarchy, depth and form and light and shadow. The thing that would make most sense to me is depth and form so basically when overlaps occur
- Proportions are incorrect. Have a hard time eyeballing
- I think that I focused too much on the details/segments of the body and not on the connections
If you have anything to add, I'd appreciate it

First batch! It was a struggle but a fun one.
Still getting the hang of the overhand grip and just charcoal, so eh, these are messy. And so are my white kitchen table, my hands, and my slippers.
Spent ~20-30 min on each.
Would appreciate your feedback! :)

these look great. just a beginner so I can't really give you any critique on it. By simply looking I feel like the upper body in 5 and 6 don't really support the gesture as good as in your previous ones

Looks to me like you focused more on the contour and not on the gesture. Go through the e-book and find rhythms to connect all the body parts. Stan demonstrates it in his demo very well

Level 1 Submission. During the assignment I felt myself focusing on proportions, finding rhythms/flow, and not just simplifying the contour. This was a challenge given not having any figure drawing experience. I felt as though I got better the more I did, had to stop a couple times to refocus myself. Any feedback is appreciated.

Looks good. You can easily read the pose. on 11 and 10 you were messy with your lines, try to do fewer strokes. other than that I like it

Here are my third attempts after watching the critics. I forced myself to use the Conte (charcoal) and it is definitely a rewarding process. It is a bit frustrating at times and I moved to the Wollf’s carbon 6b.
I tried to move from Level 1 to level 2. I might have taken too much time on some of these, but I lost myself in adding some details after laying in the main rhythms.
Any comments or feedback welcome.

Love your shapes on these. Very structural and I like it. I'd try to first get the rhythms in and then add structure on top of it. To me it looks like you did these in one go and instantly added the structure

My trial after watching the demos and critique, practicing both the overhand grip and line quality + being flowy

the first two picture I really do like. Nice use of line weight and the poses look very good and clear. On the other two images you weren't as deliberate with your line weight imo. Other than that I love those
