Using the line drawings that we've provided (or new ones of your own) paint new pieces using the materials that we went over in the previous lessons. We will provide reference photos for you to download and paint from as well. Painting from lineart of little monsters will help you abstract the structure of the character and let you focus on understanding the material property vs making the painting look like a specific object.

If you want to push yourself, find some references of other materials you'd like to investigate and paint those as well. There are so many materials to explore and the best way to add them to your visual library is to practice finding new materials that you're interested in and making pieces studying them. We may have even included some fun bonus material references in the downloadables.

If you do find new materials to paint from, post the reference with your assignments so we can give you better critiques!

Submit your assignments by May 24th if you'd like a chance to be included in the critique video.
