Feel like I did a pretty good job for my first try. The shells proportions are a bit of I think and the laces are not very confident though.

Second try after watching the demo. Still working on the confident lines.

I am not so good at drawing. What should I do. Do these exercises for a couple of days or continue?? The boots seem like a impossibility to me. And the snail is really hard to

Hi everybody ! My first attempt at the snail before watching the video. It was fun to do it. I'm ready for yours advices :) .

My second try, the first one was before demo, this - after. Oh, those laces were not easy

My first and second (after watching the demo) go at the snail and the boots. Just like Stan warned about in the demo, I fixated too much on exact propotions in my first attempts. While I don't think there is huge improvement from my first to my second attempts, my second attempts took about half the time and the process was much more enjoyable. So that is definitely something.

I intended to draw from a large container first, but I ended up working in container mode and focusing on fine details. After that, I did a cleanup pass, while still trying to keep my lines clean even during the container stage.

Laces are maddening

In the first attempt, I forgot to draw the container. In the second attempt, I sketched the container first and then drew the snail. I think this resulted in an improvement in the lines.

First attempt on shoes…I think I spent more time on this than I should have.

My first attempt on the snail

My attempt at the boots with the demo now, the laces are still killing me. I find it hard to get good lines drawing on glass but it might just take time getting used to.

I found when I was doing the exercise the first time with the boots picture I was focusing more on making it looking good instead of putting an emphasis on the CSI approach. I decided to do the snail and it didn’t turn out too bad. I still have to focus on repetitions to become more confident in the lines and apparently straight lines to be specific but even though the snail I made isn’t as fancy as the boots I like this one better since I focused on the appropriate skills. Any constructive criticism is appreciated as always! Thanks!

my first attempts before watching demo and second attempts after watching demo, feedback welcome

Before the demo. Might give it another shot later.

The shoes weren't easy! I felt overwhelmed before begining the project but it wasn't as scary as I thought which is not to say it was easy 😂

Honestly no idea how you guys did both boots in one sitting. I included the war up as I actually found that way harder especially on procreate. Getting the lines to go hard and soft on the ellipses where and when you want is for me ludicrously hard and I kinda feel like a school kid struggling to draw a circle. Also my line work is still a little scratchy but I can’t feel too bad. Also making someone draw 18 laces should be a war crime (felt like I was designing a roller coaster) jk was really fun and the laces made it feel at the end like a complete project as it completed the more simplistic boot form to make it feel like a genuine accomplishment. Edit. Forgot did a sketch of the right without laces

This is another example where my lines are too short, but I am thinking in lines and curves. I guess it's all about practice (as Dr Suzuki says)...

@Rachel Dawn Owens I had trouble drawing the snail and the strings of the shoes. Here is my before and after. Please tell me on what to improve ,thank you in advance :)
