Tried to do one of these digitally(Procreate), can't decide on what brush to use. Every brush I tried was too textured. Not sure which method I tried to go with, could be both in one.

Here is my attempt at sketching from imagination with various references. Nerd alert. I created a Star Wars inspired Gungan Jedi. I was always fascinated with the Darth JarJar fan theory lol, so I thought I’d give it a go. This character is meant to be a light side Jedi. I wanted to give the character a sense of grace in combat, much Luke from the Mandalorian, while also trying to stay true to the ‘Drunken Boxing’ martial arts style, which gives the illusion of clumsiness and utilization of distraction techniques. The lightsaber is inspired from the various gungan weapons seen in Star Wars episode 1. Designs of the Jedi robe were taken from Boss Nass attire. It was a fun project and I learned a lot!

I do not know if I am very late or too late, but I just finished Level 1. The hand was the easiest one for me, the pinguin was the hardest. I drew this $%&& bird 5 times because he kept looking stupid. My lines got better with each time and that's what matters.

Got a couple pointers to take away for my drawings from these demonstrations. Thanks! Also whoever picked the music, thank you, it's sooo good!

Level 1 guy attempting to make a jump. I tried to sketch the giraffe looking at the camera while running. My main problem seems to be establishing proportions, so rather than doing it with the pencil I use a scale divider. Is that ok or should I try to work without it?

Done with a charcoal pencil.

This was fun :) I decided to design a simple fox character (who doesn't love foxes?). I also wanted to practice more fluid lines and dynamic poses (hence I looked at some more dynamic-looking animal illustrations). I really enjoyed the sketching process, and I would be happy to receive feedback / thoughts :)

Here's my inspiration board of a crab. First page I did as warm up and getting a feel of how to construct this creature, and to get an idea of what it looks like from front- and backview. On the second picture I wanted to have a crab do some acrobatics :D This was so much fun. Tomorrow I'll sketch more crab and attempt to add some character in them. I'll edit pictures in this post.

First attempt on fluid lines .

Here are my sketches from observation. All done digitally with iPad procreate and the closest brush I could find to a colored pencil. Looking forward to seeing what everyone draws from imagination!

So these are my attempts! I am not used to drawing from imagination to be honest but this seemed to be pretty fun. First attempt wasn't great but then I came up with something pretty decent I think!

Attached are my three reference images, and some sketches from my imagination. I just finished listening to one of The Witcher books and drew a scene from there - the one with the Unicorn.

Had a go at the 3 references provided on my iPad. The arm was a bit tricky and didn’t get the foreshortening right on the fingers. Penguin was alright, and the most fun I had was with the girl character.

I'm not able to download the penguin and tortoise pictures. Can you please send me?

I’ve drawn these a couple days ago and some do seem like there might be a couple tapered lines. Not all of them obviously, I’m not able yet to control line work so well.

What are some good drawing tools with which to draw tapered strokes?

Sweet, haven't had much luck with varied line weight mid-stroke. This is going to be helpful! Thanks!

Thank you for including some of my assignments in the critique video! I'm not quite certain why I even went with darker lines, likely a habit to outline which I'm trying to get under control by going through this course. I had drawn boots and the snail after watching the demo as well, however I think my 1st attempt at the snail was better whereas shoes had some improvement.

Hello! Beginner here. I've taken a stab at the 3 pears (in order). I lose a lot of patience the longer I'm in a sitting so pear 3 feels a little rushed. also values skew a bit dark since I'm having a hard time with shading lightly.

Day 13. Just wanted to try markers. Although I found I made many mistakes after watching the demo video.
