Level 1 demos are done and it's time to move on to level 2! In this lesson, I show you how I would approach the level 2 CSI project.

What I did before watching the demo. (the skull was done with a 6H pencil)

Trying again after the demo. It's really hard to re-train your brain into NOT detailing that much >_>

These are my attempts before seeing the demo,

My camel attempt after watching the demo. I watched it yesterday and i draw the camel the next day from what i learned

Lvl 2 CSI lines (I kept the skull simple in the beginning, but added some detail later. Got lazy with the spine though don’t mind this mess).

Crushed it!

Would love some feedback on this one. I tried to limit the details as much as possible but I couldn’t help but add a bit in the face. I have a feeling the proportions are off on this one but it’s kinda hard for me to tell. I really tried to focus on the confident lines and drawing with my shoulder.

The legs might be a bit long, but I think it's better for them to be too long than too short. Proportions are important but take a backseat on this assignment. The main point is to simplify using curves and straights, which you did a great job with. Keep it up 👍

Did my best to try and keep myself from getting lost in the details with the “After Demo” attempts.

Decided to also tackle level 2, got kinda lost in the bones of though.

I drew both on a A5 format (kind of Statement format), too small. Therefore, lack of details especially for the captain.

New version after demo
Although I was satisfied with my first attempt, I have the feeling that I am getting too lost in the details. So my goal in this exercise was to make the lines as simple as possible. It's amazing what simplifying can do :-)

These turned out lovely! I love the boots--they have so much character. Great job!

This is my skull drawing. A bit scare of the bone, but feel happy that I gave a try

Oh no! You can try this little measuring tip for the next long legged thing you draw-
rough in a couple of light lines for basic measurements before you start. This will help contain things to the size of the page.
Or, try drawing on a bigger paper! Drawing large is great and people love to see it.

First attempts at the skull and camel

I don’t think the shoe came out great but I’m not seeing why? I understand something is wrong with it but I can’t put my finger on it. I would very much appreciate any critiques, please and thank you.

It sort of looks like the right shoe instead of the left shoe because of the curve of the sole. Could be a touch too wide also. It feels a little more left shoe-like with the curve of the sole pushed over towards the right.

Found the boots to be the hardest of the four. I’ve been using a 4H to really help keep my contour lines super light. Having a hard time hitting the proportions just right. Also challenging to find the right balance between getting stuck in the details vs simplifying and getting the right contours onto the paper. Before demos

my skull...what do you think?

omg yes! I didn't even realized hahaha thank you so much :) <3
@toph

It came out awesome! The only thing I noticed is that you didn’t finish the line for the top row of teeth so it looks like there is a big hole in the mouth that doesn’t actually exist.

I'm really happy with this result! For a change, I focused on staying true to the assignment rather than just drawing to the best of my ability. I like how the lines for the belly and jaw turned out. One area for improvement is sharpening my pencil more often—I should have done that before drawing the rear legs.
Any tips are welcome!

I like this thought! that's what I've been doing too, letting go of wanting to get a nice drawing and just enjoy the process...cute camel, he seems so happy
