the unnumbered ones are from imagination (level 1)
for this one i tackled level 2 as well (the numbered ones). Stan was right, they're actually harder than i imagined!
Asked for help
Level 2 forms. I find it hard to separate the foreground and the background with proper spacing of the CC-lines. Would appreciate feedback on how to do that better and, if possible, examples!

this is so much fun!!
i haven't done ginger root people yet but that's a perfect sketching exercise, i think i'll be doing those regularly. now i can't wait to move on to the next part of the course!
i tried experimenting with varying line weight to suggest perspective. it definitely makes it look better! on the shark i kinda screwed it up but others look great i think. on the red sealion i overdid it and the line weight suggests much more depth than there is, but on the turtle and the blue sealion where there's a ton of foreshortening, it looks great to me

first few are kinda off (especially top right) but towards the end i started getting it!
nice easy relaxing project as an intermezzo, yay :)

whoa again one surprisingly harder than i thought!
I tried to use the extending-the-X method to get the back wheel to have the same size as the front; I would've made them so much wider if I were eyeballing it! this looks about right to me.
I reasoned the size spare should be slightly smaller than the closest wheel, but definitely bigger than the far front one.
the closest wheel seems slightly thicker to me than the others, I don't know if I'm imagining that

whew. being able to hit the vanishing point with the receding lines is one thing, but the much more difficult thing is judging and comparing the depth of objects that are at different depths in the room!!
i did try to make it cozy with some plants and art :)
line quality suffered because i made one straight line from the shoulder, completely missed, and then got spooked and drew from the wrist. also drawing with fineliner on sketchbook paper, not a good idea.
afterwards i checked the receding lines with a ruler. i extended the lines that are close enough in green, and a few i completely missed with red.
adding a snapshot of the pencil construction in case anyone's curious.
100%
In a vacuum, aligning the object to the vanishing point is relatively "simple" but the tricky part is keeping the depth relationship of all objects coherent. In my attempt, I am pretty sure I pushed the fridge into the wall rather than out. Fun stuff.

in order as i drew them. about 15 mins per page (2 poses).
the first 2 i was trying overhand grip, but i'll have to practice that more. for the rest i went back to tripod grip.
towards the end i feel i started getting the hang of it, i'm pretty happy with some of them!

this was fun! line quality still suffers a bit from shaky hands and lack of motor control

ear a bit small, cheekbone a bit too protruding, mouth a little bit high, but otherwise not terrible I think
