My second attempt at level one, plus a simple tree house for level two.

Here's my first try. I decided to add a zeppelin to fill the sky and practice some more cross-contour.

Where can the reference images be downloaded? It’s very hard to measure and compare from the image in the video.

I guess you already found them, but just in case, they are in the download section of the main page for this course: https://www.proko.com/course/the-block-in-course/downloads

Here's what I could do. I'm not sure if a "block in" is just to get the proportions right and placement of light and shadows, or if it's also important to get the right values. In the video Stephen pass multiple time over the same areas to get them darker. At this stage is it still a "block in" or is he staring to add details? Maybe I'm overthinking this! Anyway, can't wait to try the structural method! :)

This is my attempt at a mermaid. I tried to lay in the shadows too, but I'm not sure how light reacts underwater. I really need to practice more!

My favorite room. Last year, my wife and I moved into our condo. The property came with a basement unit which I converted into a hobby room. It is the first time I have had a dedicated space for art. I did this as a graphite sketch last week on 14ʺX17ʺ. However, I was having difficulty getting that version to look presentable on the computer. The cause may have been a combination of poor lighting and poor camera quality on the part of my cellphone. Eventually, I decided that I would rather just trace over the whole thing with digital pencil on another layer and then discard the photograph. I added some values so that it wouldn't look as out of place next to Gaby's wonderful submissions. I am confident this sketch captures the essential feeling of the space, but comparing it to the actual room, there are indeed proportional errors. Additionally, there are objects and features I altogether forgot existed until I was through with the sketch. Or more commonly, I misremembered the exact shape of the objects I did draw.
