I failed the challenge already 😂 I missed one day and drew from photo the other days. I might extend the challenge for myself. I am now on day 8 of the two week challenge. One of the drawings is the CSI excercise I did again after watching the demo so not the challenge either.

Second attempt after watching both of the demo’s. I know that I still need to practice taking my time with each drawing. I focused a lot more on drawing confident lines.

Here are my first 4 days of the drawing challenge. I used to be better in drawing from real life but now it feels really difficult. My lines are not really confident. I am happy that we get challenges like these!

I struggled a lot more with these than with the previous excercise. I noticed that I mostly do figure drawings and almost never draw something else. Tried to aproach it like gesture studies but might have worked to fast on these. My proportions are off and my line quality can be better. I would be very happy to get feedback! Onto the two week challenge and the demo videos!

Here is my attempt after watching the demo. I used multiple pencils this time and tried to make the shapes more simple than last time. I did forget to shade according to the planes so my pencil strokes are a little bit messy. Now that I am watching the drawing from a screen I notice that I could have given the shirt a light value and that the shading is a bit messy. Feedback is always welcome!

I did not expect to struggle with ellipses so much! 😂 I will do these regularly. Tried ghosting my lines but they are still messy.

I struggled with this warmup. I've been practicing it for a few days and seeing improvement. Once it got easier to get my ellipses in the right spot, I could start focusing on my line darkness. Learning how to use my whole arm to draw and not just my hand has been hard. It gets easier every time! Still practicing this warmup.

Hi, these look better each day! I think it is good that you focus on one thing at a time. Try making different ones with different proportions and also try overlapping the shapes for the head and the body ellips next time you do the warmup

Hi, really excited to start the drawing basics course! Had a lot of fun so I drew all of them. I am not a new artist but I am struggling with my fundamentals so feedback is very much appreciated!

I'm Storm, from Hungary. I'm a digital artist mostly interested in anthropomorphic animals (or "furry art"), creatures, fantasy. I'm doing art full time as much as my health allows and make my living from furry commissions. I'm greatly inspired by classical painters, especially late Renaissance and Baroque but also some modern masters. My influences include Caravaggio, Velázquez, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Rubens, Sargent, Bouguereau, Craig Mullins, Karla Ortiz and many, many more. There are several anthro/furry artist influences too, like Bubblewolf (https://www.deviantart.com/bubblewolf), Reykat (https://www.artstation.com/reykat), Nomax (https://www.artstation.com/nomax), Honovy, Pacelic (https://www.artstation.com/pacelic), Veramundis, Yanchek and more. My dream is to develop a style similar to classical painters, but paint the anthro characters and things I like. It is also my dream to be able to make a decent living doing art and to become an art educator one day. Here are some of my better pieces:

Hi Storm, welcome to the community! Your BG in the second last painting looks really good! I would love to see Renaissance and Baroque paintings but with furry art!
