Caught up and following in time with the videos now. :) Will try to do these (and some mushrooms) regularly before drawing.

(Moved this post from the critique video to here because I just realized this was an "assignments" tab.) These are pre-demo/critique and post-demo/critique attempts.   Pre-demos were done like the CSI project - oops!  After the demo/critique, I tried to redo them looser, more gestural, and building upon initial light/searching lines. I think overall the 2nd attempts are more sketch-like, although you can´t see much difference for the VR-girl #2 because I tried to clean smudges on that one and accidentally took off much of the initial light line work. I guess I need to start leaving the smudges alone.

Finally caught up!  Pre-demo level1. I boxed in areas first to help with proportions, although I still had to move a few things anyway.  Dunno if erasing was allowed, but I did.   Glancing now at the demo images, I think I wasn't loose enough and I have too many contours. Any feedback welcome!

Tapered lines, and then tried to use tapered lines for some of the images in the video. I have a bad tendency to go back&forth instead of a single tapered line. I also tend to forget proportions when focusing on the tapering - probably need to box out the spaces first, even when doing tapered sketching. Anyway, the grandpa duck in the center isn't too bad.

still trying to catch up with the class... Here are my pre-demo (left) and post-demo (right) snails. Boxing in the basic proportions before drawing the contours, as shown in the demo, helped greatly.

Before and after demo. Although "after demo" doesn't really describe it. More like "after demo 10x" -- stopped between each shade to compare mine to the demo and fix (multiple times) prior to proceeding. The lightest shade doesn't seem to show on these uploaded thumbnails, but it is there on the paper. Very hard for me to see which parts are which shades, especially light-shadow vs. dark-halftone. Definite improvement, though. Feedback welcome! :)

Just started the course, so coming in a bit late. But anyway... here are my pre-demo and post-demo pears (pear1). I think it's much improved after seeing the demo. Any feedback welcome - thanks!
