Hi younchen, I like the way you have the gesture and then add the forms of the muscles (like with the trapezius). The placement of each form feels more natural this way.
I agree with Liandro, he always gives great advice!
I would like to add two more suggestions.
1. You drew cross-contour lines on brachialis and deltoid opposite of the contour-lines of the biceps. These cross-contours should be the same for all the upper arm, because they are on the same form (cylinder in simplification).
The cross-contour lines you drew on brachialis and deltoid seem more accurate to me, so I would suggest to change these of the biceps.
2. Although the forms are Very good, they feel a little bubble-like. I would suggest to add some straights here and there, in order to feel more solid.

Looks really good, @younchen! I love the sense of 3D form and the thickness variety in the linework.
One thing I'd recommend, if possible, would be to start this type of anatomical study with the underlying bone structure, and even leave it with lighter lines in the finished version of the sketch. Considering the bones allows for a more accurate placement of the muscles, since we get to more precisely track the origins and insertions.
Hope this helps.
Other than that, great work!

This one was tricky...I drew it several times trying to find the right balance between all the bumpiness of his bulging muscles and the overall flow of the arm.

First I wanted to distinguish the muscles, then draw from what I saw on the photo, using the former drawing as a reference. Of course I saw Stan’s version but I tried not to copy.
Had a little break here, following Marshall’s course on Heinrich Kley. Even if you can’t join the live streaming (1:00 at night in Europe) it’s more than worthwhile!!!

2021/9/2. Hi everyone. Here’s my assignment for this chapter. After watching the critiques video I’ll try to make again this example and another one ‘cause I don’t really like how I’ve drawn them. Thanks.

Your structure is there and looks clean! When you are using shadows think about the structure you are shading and vary it accordingly. If we were to think about the cylinder and how it turns in space and wraps light around it, your gradations should be soft. Especially for your core shadows.

Plane changes look very sharp due to lack of tonal gradation from terminator to light.
