I usually draw the people, so drawing an animal was a good challenge. Still trying to draw a tiger. Please feel free to critique, I would love to hear some feedback :D

Great simplification and studying from the reference to your original drawing! I think you still have room for more exploration and iterations if you're up for the challenge -- try pushing the shapes to really capture the idea you are trying to convey. For example, the top drawing as the tiger is walking towards the viewer could have the shoulders more exaggerated and large to convey the muscular build and the sense of the cat prowl, or really pushing the fur on the cheeks to be larger instead can convey the cat-likeness. Have fun trying out different variety of shapes, as that's the best way to build confidence in imaginative sketching :D

Hello, here is my first try. Please, I would be appreciated for any advice or critique!
Very nice simplification!
If I can put words into Stan's mouth (after having watched all the critiques), he might point out that the lines in this exercise where supposed to be straights, not curves, though I see how tempting it is to go for curves when you're drawing an apple ;)
Also, I see how the lines of your shading are indicating the form of the apple in your mid tone at the top, but you might want to practice shading in an even tone, so that no lines are discernible, and it's all just flat gray.
And one last thing - try not to outline your highlights. The dark line between the highlight and lightest light spoils the effect. If outlining helps you get the shapes correct, then maybe erase it afterwards?
But all in all, great work :) Keep it up!
I really like the delicacy of your line work and shading. Reminds me a little of Georges Seurat's drawings :) Nice job.
hi Temoki, I like the fact that your lines look clean and directionally disciplined, especially at the top of the apple which shows volume. The apple picture itself has too much surrounding light scatter resulting in not so much distinguishing shades on the apple.
