Something about the angle of the nose is bothering me but this 2nd attempt is waaaay better than the first! :)

A few more sketches I did from real life observation this time. Much more challenging with in particular difficulties with perspective and proportions. I Tried different techniques. Sometimes with preliminary pencil marks (more attention to composition and perspective), sometimes directly in pen (more focus directly on 2d shapes). 2 completely different exercises.

I love love the simplicity of these without a background but the perspective is a bit off in one or 2. I believe if you modify the angle of the chair legs to be more straight lines, it will ground the object. Also the shadow of the flip flops give mixed signals as to which direction is the light source. When I say this I just mean that the strap indicates the light is from above but ahead, while the shadow behind them indicates the light is directly before them instead of above. Your 1st and 4th photos are my favorite. The shelf has good perspective and the 1st is very detailed while toeing simplicity to match the others. Great work!

Basics project feedback8mo
I just finished the first project associated with the basics course. I tried both level options. I know the angle of the mouth on the second one and the shadow of the first one is wrong but ignoring that, please critique.
I haven’t watched the demo that follows this yet, so asking for critique already may be pointless, but please.
