My pear attempt. I’ll try again tomorrow.

Second verse, hopefully better than the first? I was less distracted by the quality of the edges this time.

I tried doing the level 2 portrait initially and... it was awful. I went back and I watched the demo for the pear, then made another attempt here. Using Krita, I found some additional pencil brushes online but still not sure about them, I kind of struggled to find a complete good set of them, but I think I made it work okay.

What should i improve? any critiques?

Started this course a while back and then stopped when life got busy. So here’s my attempt at restarting. Two separate attempts at drawing an apple from life. In one of the attempts I brought the dark half tone out a bit more and the other I let the dark halftone ride along the edge of the core shadow. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

do I have hope?

It's a start toward something.

Here are my before-and-after demos (please tell me you can tell the difference). What do you guys think? I would really appreciate some tips!

Hi community! I´m just so happy to finally be able to defeat my ego and not look for perfection that only stops me from learning. Ofc that includes sharing my beginner´s skills!

Simplified pear from observation

I attempted to draw with out looking at the references but after Three attempts the shaded background is after watching the demo

today was this yellow bastard

it was eaten because of its complexity

My wife and I are doing this together - fun

It was really challenging, especially the straight lines. I only started a few days ago. I'm very excited to see where the journey takes me.

Pre and post demo. Hopefully the post-demo drawing is okay.

Well, I draw first 2 before demo and last after. Feel that learned some more things from demo
