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.

First drawing is first attempt before demo, second is following along with demo. I am level 1 but decided to do the camel since I found it the most interesting. I struggled with keeping a steady hand when using CSI, I think because it is so new to me. I attempted an elephant after this project as well. I struggle with drawing fluid lines and simplifying the subject.

Another push on my attempt to practice and catch up. Far from perfect/good quality lines but good, fun leaning.

Honestly, I learned two things from this video. 1. I have to draw bigger. 2. I have to fake confidence until i have it.

I wonder why Stan hasn’t talked about using the overhand grip on the pencil? I resisted using it for years but now find I sketch much better and looser since I adopted it.

pre demo camel, came out better than expected. i used circles and cones for the rough sketch and then used C,S or straight lines

Bit late to the party, but I did these before watching the 'solution' videos

CSI and tapered lines. Used same reference that someone else used some day ago.

After watching this, I went back and added the laces to my boots (I think I'd oversimplified by leaving those out) and then tried a couple more.

 Attempt at level 2 before (left) and after (right) watching the demos. As I’ve mentioned in the post for my level 1 attempt. I was way to careful and timid with my lines before. My hand would hurt a lot and it was easier to get overwhelmed. The demos really clarified the purpose of the exercise for me. Even though some areas in the second attempts look messier, at least I knew this time what I was supposed to focus on.

Catching up. These were prior to watching the demo, which I still have to do. :)

CSI has helped me more than anything else in the last year! I've been applying it to the figures I draw (started when I did Fundamentals of Figure Drawing) and everything's getting better. Now. Thank you!

I tried them before watching the video. I knew I drew too many details once I saw the video cover. Just hope I can draw more relaxed.

Your drawing came out very fascinating! It is a mix of our first assignment focus with the 2nd assignment visual.

The trick to drawing skulls is to draw the cranium 1st, makes it much easier than playing Where's Waldo metaphorically speaking when you draw them.
