Now that you’ve all had some time to try the first project on your own, you can watch how I do it and figure out what areas you are exceeding and struggling with. Here is my step-by-step demo on how to properly execute the first project for level 1 students.

values look great i feel like the lines could've been more straight/simple though

These are my second and third drawings after the demo. It took a long time to adjust the proportions, but it was definitely worth it for the result. What a great way to practice patience!

Really struggled with overall using traditional materials, and being able to see 5 values was very difficult, at most i saw 4 and made up where i thought 5 (darkest) would be based on the light source. this exercise did help a lot to be able to understand where contour lines should be placed on a 3D form, which is something i was struggling with for awhile if i were to retry this, I'd squint or blur my eyes at the reference to simplify the shadows more easily

Okay after watching the demo, I redid my pear #2.... I do think it's improved. And it gave me the opportunity to correct where my previous lines were going every which-way.

Seems like mine got worse, after the demo. I dont know which pencile I should use on procreate to make the shadows :/
Rachel Dawn Owens
You could try flat shapes of value. This will still get the idea across. You can also try just a regular hb basic pencil.

I tried using a picture of my own, so I took a picture of a tangerine with a light focusing on the top left. I am not happy with the end result, but I am unsure on where to improve. My biggest issue was with different colors and different values, between the tangerine and the leafs. I ended up using the same values for adjacent parts with different colors and it confuses me.

I have the same issue as you
Rachel Dawn Owens
Wow! This looks great! This is a very eye catching drawing. If you wanted to separate the values of the leaves from the fruit more, try constraining the values. This concept will come in handy with more advanced subjects down the road too.

First try, pear #2! Man, I struggled a lot to get the proportions right, and they're a bit off. Plus I might need a bigger piece of paper next time.

Here is my second attempt on pear #1 :)

Perfect!

I think it is clear what was my first attempt. I was kinda trying to do it without the tutorial and what I inferred from the other lessons. Second one was more step by step with the main demo video. Thank you so much Proko! This was fun to see the progress :)

Tried a different fruit. 😁

Attempts 1 thru 5. lol Procreate is hard.

this is my first try after the video, unfortunately I just have Hb, H and 6H, But as soon as I get my art supplies, I will try it again!

My second attempt after seeing the demo. I tried to focus on values more. I think I did a better job this time but I see I need to practice shading more.
Rachel Dawn Owens
Beautiful

I just noticed that the angle of the picture I took of the model is a little different from the actual angle I was seeing it from, but it works for the review. Hope you guys can check it out! (Ignore the drops on the paper, lesson learned)
Rachel Dawn Owens
This is a wonderful simplification of the planes. A pepper is a great thing to study for this.
@rustydoggobytes
a little confused on how to do values with a digital pencil. tried using the hb and 6b as they come default with procreate. i am still a little uncertain how dark to make things. but tis was fun nevertheless!
