Hiii
at first I did a very rounded buffalo, so i did a very squared one as a second option.
I also tried to do a wolf, and I was impressed to find those “dangerous” triangles in its shape.
For the puma I tried it two times, i feel like pumas are very “wise” looking and intimidating, my first try was too cute, the face was too tiny and maybe rounded too, tried a second face with more edges and I tried to find the rythim in the internal lines, I think the personality is closer to my feeling..
I would love to have feedback!

I love how you were thinking about the personalities and shape language for these -- it definitely shines through! I do also really like the shape exploration especially with the buffalo, which I think as you reached the puma, started becoming a bit lost in favor of realism. Try thinking back to the most basic shapes you can use as building blocks for the animal's faces. Breaking up the detail in the nose bridge or the cheekbones into a shape can be something fun to explore and play around with :)

I tried to draw digitally my desk enviromemt for the first time and is a lot harder to achieve clean lines in that slippery surface. For the rino I did the importance approach with the classic pencil and paper

If you feel less confident with digital, you can try out some exercises from earlier, like Warmups to Improve Line Quality, Warmup - Mushrooms, or even the first project Project - Simplify from Observation, to get your hand more used to the new drawing environment. It usually takes some time to readjust whenever switching mediums, especially traditional to digital, so more basic exercises are a perfect way to ease into it.

Hi!!
I tried to sketch a fictional character called larkin (from stormlight archives books) it is “like a cremling but with wings that fold out of its back”, “they are lizards wasp dragons”… so I used images of cremlings, winged animals, millipedes and even turtles. It was really hard to end up with a result that I liked but I think the last page is a good one, thank you for the challenge!!
