No red pencil so tried to use a sepia pencil which kept breaking. Sigh. Anyway tried to be a lot looser, maybe a bit too much ? Kinda starts to feel messy maybe. I think the thick fur kinda throws me off a little, should have picked a lizard or insect !

After seeing the demo, I made another attempt. I just can't get enough of raccoons :-)

did these after watching demo

This is after watching the critique. I feel like I definitely gave myself more freedom to just explore and see where things went which was lovely. Would really appreciate any critiques! (Repost because the last one had a typo that didn’t make any sense)

hi! I notice the english subtitles on this video are totally out of sync with the video itself. is there anyway this could be fixed?

Here are my references, study sketches, and my final sketch from imagination.

if their are try liking them and they will all update

LOL to me all my comments are duped!!! Do u see that?

He did not even critique the capybara

Here are my sketches From observation and then From imagination. I Tryed different kind of expression for my Toaster Bulldog, more cartoony and other more angry like monsters From comics book… i tried to get the eyes and teeth a but in a style like the Savage Wolverine From Joe Madureira but… on a Toaster Frenchie 🤷🏻‍♂️ I donˋt know why I kept the one standing up on his feet I totally messed this one… i guess for the record. Have a nice day.

Sometimes time seems to fly by.

Gave this another shot after watching the crit, I managed to make one drawing I felt had some potential to develop further. This is a REALLY good exercise I should def repeat ALOT

After watching the critiques I figured I’d better try again and not be so precious with drawing. It’s very hard not to. I wanted the weasel on the right to emphasize how long and tube-y they are with those funny round haunches, top middle to show some personality, but I think the bottom left is my favorite.

In my first attempt I skipped the studies, so I tried again after watching the demo and critiques. I have studies on one page, and exploration on the other, but I haven't picked one for step three; hopefully I'll add a final drawing too. I'm a bit lost with how their feet work, if anyone could help with that I'd appriceate it.

The first photo is sketch from observation, the second one the first is from observation and the kung fu one is from imagination as well as the two last chicken drawings.

Here is my attempt for learning how to draw from imagination project. I chose an otter for this project and I need feedback on my attempt. I feel like Im still in the perfection mindset even in sketching. I am trying my best to be loose when I am attempting to draw the otter from memory which is the image on the far right. Stan mentioned a lot in the critique video of being loose and exploring and I hope I show that in the image far right. I will upload my final attempt on the otter soon! :)

Hey! Here is my 2nd attempted at this assignment (technicality 2nd and 3rd) I am have a hard time grasping the "messy" line part of this project. I draw through, look for rhythms and shapes, etc. but i have a strong habit of drawing "clean lines" if I see a mistake (line not where they are supposed to go or got a shape wrong, a proportion error i noticed) I will go in and correct it. Maybe I am misunderstanding and my sketches are what the assignment is looking for or maybe I am not getting something. the first two rabbit pages are studying refs, the 3rd it exploring and the last rabbit is my final. the two jackal pages are self explanatory. In this assignment I tried my hardest to be messy/exploratory and not concerned with rightness so I included a "sketch" i did while having fun with level 1 to show what my usual sketches look like

Tried on a Pangolin after watching the demo and critique. Looked for the main feature and the idea it was giving. I think I'm happy with the results. Would appreciate any help or advice given. Edit: spelling

Tried to make Indiana Jones but I thought he was too much of a scared animal so made beni gabor

👋🙂 Watched the critiques, refined the approach🙌.
