I found interesting the little details at the end of the tail. Maybe the photo itself looks a bit over saturated.

This gesture feel very fluid! I think you could benefit from using some cross countor lines in your gestures.

I think it could be a good idea to spend some time studying the gestures that Stan does in the videos. So you can get a feeling of how to get the effect of movement those gesture have.

I suggest to do a lot more than this and combine 1 minute poses, 2 minute poses as well as analysing the poses without a timer. Ask yourself question like "what the longest action line I can find?" And so on. I my opinion is better do draw with different times in mind in the same sesión

I think that you try practicing some other skills first before trying shading. Like line quality and basic volumens. After that come back to this lesson and try again it will be much more easier for you.

Really love the design of the girl!

Love it

Lovely

I like that iteration of ideas. I feel like a gun and flower can give a confusing sense of harmlessness and harmfulness which sounds nice to me.

Good job with this exercise! I really like the ones with more structure, they feel a little stiff but i think you made some good choices at the moment of adding some structure. With the gesture exercises I think that you are relying too much in the contour specially in the legs. Although it might sound abstract the idea of the gesture is to capture the movement of the body and not the forms of the contour. Maybe this comments/exercises are useful to you: - Remember to use the CSI rule to keep your line simple, if the body if flowing in a more complicated manner construct that complexity base in this three simple kind of lines. - Although the 1 minute gesture is suppose to be done in one minute, you still can pause the time and study carefully your reference. Ask yourself what are the biggest lines in the figure, what describe better the movement of the body, and try to draw a gesture that you would like to obtain in one minute. Then you can come back to the usual practice of one minute gesture. - You can also play with the amount of line you allow yourself to use to draw the gesture. This exercise might help you think about how to simplify the the body. For example try to do a gesture using at most 5 lines. Hope these comments help you!

I think this is a good practice. It is a good idea to study the proportions in detail before trying to do them more intuitively. You have some problems when the face is looking up. This is a difficult problem and way to go around it is to study references of facing looking up and trying to abstract the Lomis head from those references. Hope these comments are useful to you!

Hi Chaye. -I think that it is better to have a bunch of examples to give you a proper critique. - Even if you go for a cartoon style to draw the Loomis head correctly will give a strong foundation to build your caricature. - Your drawing looks fine, it has a good line quality and the hair looks convincing. As I said above it is difficult to give proper critique if you show few example and you are not practicing the exercise as they are described. In any style you will benefit from learning the basic correctly. Hope this help you!

Hi, this is a good practice! I think you have some difficulties with the angle between the side plane and the front plane when drawing the loomis head at 3/4 view. A good practice to do to fix this is to draw boxes using the picture as a reference.

I think that is a good practice so far. I have some comments that might be useful to you: - Frequently it is better to focused in really specific stuff. For example you can practice a lot the Loomis Head until you feel some confidence with it. Then you move towards the features. - You might benefit from practicing your line quality. At this point it seems very chicken scratching. You can practice your line quality in your warm ups. Getting a better line quality is not only going to improve the appearance of your drawing but also your ability to understand what you are drawing. When practicing the Loomis Head it is important to understand that you are given a simplify 3D version of the head and so you need to give a clear division of the basic planes of the head. Hope this comments are useful to you!

I think that this course can be a little advance if you are a total beginner. I think it can be a good idea to learn some general fundamentals first. I think that a good place to being is the Draw a Box and around the Lesson 3 in that course you have enough fundamentals down to begin with this course.
