First without watching the demo, then after. Had the most trouble keeping the values consistent and edges clear. Worked in procreate, so the feeling for the pencil is not quite the same. I think I actually like my first try better.

Had a hard time visualizing the blocks or shapes

My levels 1 and 2. Made before watching the demo. I guess I tried to follow the shape of the pear a little too much...

attempted it alongside the demo. the shadows turned out a bit darker than usual tho, and the lines are quite sharp. is there a way i could tackle that?

Before and after demo.

i did along side the demo, messed it up at the shadow part i didn’t listen fully before going full shade mode lol

Before demo....

1st attempt

Hi I am a designer from Hong Kong. It is my first time attempting an overseas online course because I want to enhance my creativity. This exercise is really fun! I have never done a simplification exercise like this, and it helps me see things in a new way.

Here is my attempt before and after the demo! I can see the improvement. I really enjoyed following the demo!

2nd attempt after the video

2nd attempt after watching this video

Result after following along with Stan. Looks much better than the original one that I drew. The approach to the tones made a big difference.

This is not a pear :-)

Here is my pear attempt. Cool exercice, took me about 15-20 min, i'm happy with the results even tho it surely can be improved

So, do you have suggestions on how to do things like shading if you have a tremor? While your hand moves back and forth very smoothly in tight areas, mine does not. I was very impressed with the earlier video of the terrific work done by the person drawing with his mouth. Honestly, I think he would get quite dizzy doing the mushrooms that are coming up. I am very lucky to have just a tremor. Thanks!

Hi, I'm a 3D animator but I'm going back to work on my illustration skills from the beginning since I haven't seriously draw in close to a decade. I also have felt that I missed something when I was first learning the fundamentals that has held me back for years. Left first attempt, right is the attempt after watching the demo

Hi, i want to post my drawing assignments here to motivate me to draw more. Just want your opions, these are my first and second attempt of simplifying the Pear.

Hi. I'm drawing using procreate still hard to find very good custom brushes but still discovering and doing more practice of making lines

My first attempt and the second after watching the demo. I Understood better the proportion…
