This project has been so much harder for me. My whole life I've only ever seen contour when trying to draw so it's left me unable to invent for my self very effectively. I've been redoing this project everyday since it came out and I finally feel like I'm starting to grasp the concept.

It’s time for another demo! Come check out my process for simplifying animal portraits into basic shapes.

post demo attempt at the pictures i tried earlier. don't think much changed, very hard to try to think in shapes
Shohei Yoshida
The last tiger image didn’t seem to have enough shapes with just ten, so it ended up becoming thirteen.
Daniel Cabot
For level 2 I designed the chicken to be fiercer the buffalo to be goat like and the hippo surprised
Eiko Fazio
Here are 3 animals I drew - before the demo (right side) and after the demo(left). Stan's demo definitely helped.

I hadn't drawn in a couple of days, so I decided to make a copy of Proko's shapes to get back into the swing of things. Have a good day!

Here is the second half of my simple animal portraits but level 2 this time. Really tried to lean into shape language to make personalities. Struggled a little bit but I feel like I learned a bit. Tried to implement line weight but got tired at the end there. I also exaggerated proportions. Lemme know y’all’s critique or words of encouragement :) it’s encouraged.

I tried to get the shapes into small sketches firstand then do the final drawings. I used markers because I just got them and got excites jeje but I need to learn how to make out the shadows.

These are so cool and interesting. I love how you interpreted this assignment. That first page especially nails it. There’s a very solid sense of shape design. Great stuff!

I’ve added some extra character sketching practice for myself, so don’t mind it, the hippo’s design was partly based on The Godfather. I'll be giving digital tablet drawing a try next.

After watching the demo I had to try again

I took a longer than expected break, but I'm back with a retry of the simple animal portaits, after watching the demo. I prefer these much more than my last ones. Will be moving onto level 2 next.

Nice, you did well using more closed shapes this go around 👍
