Journey 3 - structure critique
1yr
@silentmoonss
Hello everyone. I’m in the next section which is structure. This is very hard at least implementation wise. I guess I should be grateful that all that I total perspective practice I’ve done and all the basic shapes I’ve practiced over the course of multiple months paid off because now I can visually see shapes within people and even animals. However actually drawing plausible shapes to actually make a decent animal and or figure is harder than I thought despite the basic shape practice. This week has been a bit stressful at least time wise because I didn’t really have enough time to draw so it feels like all my weeks of work has kinda diminished a bit so I’m a bit frustrated with that.
overall I’m planning on taking another week of this until I at least have a good grasp of it before moving in to the next section. Anyways I hope for some feedback from this and please some tips and references. The picture of animals are all the ones I’ve been working with.

Hey, @silentmoonss I would say you’ve drawn a lot! Good work. Your cubes and cylinders look good. Are they from imagination? If not try to draw some from imagination too. Here are my notes on cylinders if you want to take a look.

For the animals I would recommend finding the horizon line and putting them into boxes. As I’ve just told Frank here.

Hey SilentMoonss, at least for the people, I think you're doing fine. When I started mannequizing (?), I would entirely loose the gesture, and you still have that for the most part. And as I can see from the writing that you're your own worst critic, improvement shouldn't be far away.
Anyway, more structure can't hurt, so keep on doing what you're doing.
