Asked for help
Finally finished these! Life with a toddler and a newborn is no joke. Completely forgot the part about changing the pose and imagining the form, but I imagined the blobs, does that count? Regardless. I tried to focus on line quality. I miss working on paper, but the iPad is just way more convenient to lug around the house. Onward!

These line quality on these drawings is amazing! The ginger roots are my favorite.

Hello,
I'm sending over a few sketches from the level 2 assignment. It was a fantastic exercise and a lot of fun! Any feedback or advice is very welcome 😊

I like all the different poses you went for. If you wanted to take them further, try pushing the shapes even more.
Good stuff 👍

These are my first attempts before watching the demo—I decided to try them digitally. The shadows and light were a bit confusing at times, but it was fun.

This was a lot of fun! I tried to do inverse tones on two of the images but my brain kept getting confused trying to remember that shadows are now the lightest value and vice versa haha.
It was my first time trying markers too. They definitely stop you from going too heavy into the detail so it was nice to use both mediums and strike a balance in this project.
I only have a limited amount of markers so i had to take my best guess with the values.
Overall I think number 1 and 4 are my best.

Fun! But still confused about the cross contouring though…

It looks like you pretty much got it. I traced over your drawing to figure out what I could maybe offer.
Maybe this little drawing can help you understand more.
This is how I think about it. Like drawing rings around the whole form.
Keep going with these.

I just like the line variety of an overhand grip, so all of these are extra messy. I’m not particularly proud of any of them in particular although I do believe that this type of thing gets better with time. Such as the line cleanliness and proportional mistakes. These were really quick, am planing to do more. However any suggestions as to how I could make the lines… well less complicated. Thanks for your time :)

The notes are great. You will learn a lot that way.
Keep practicing this way. Don’t over complicate it though. Anatomy and proportions come second to the simplest statement possible.

I tried to create a realistic and one more cartoony character. It was super fun.

I had trouble in the first couple of poses, but it has gotten a little easier a long the way. I still need to work on it though.

This assignment was very challenging for me. Even as I followed the how-to that Stan did, I struggled. And my ability to eyeball without any kind of measurement is very undeveloped. I corrected over and over as I went along. It took well over an hour to lay it in initially; I had a bit better of a time with creating the shapes, and then, creating the shapes/detail for the face was, again, challenging. I will not be discouraged by this, she said hopefully.

The placement is good. The angle of the cheek could come in and the eye is a little small. Just minor stuff.
I love the careful lines.
You did great!
