In this demo, I'll demonstrates a slower, shape-based approach to figure drawing that emphasizes form, overlap, and rhythm through part-to-part construction.

The more I used the shape method, the more I'm confused. I'm attaching my first attempts, but I'll upload more once I watch the demo. I need some affirmation to understand better what I'm presenting with this method.

is it over? Will there be a new video or was that the last one?

There is still a critique video coming for the last assignment and a conclusion video (if not one more). Please email or write the team at Proko directly for exact dates as I'm not too sure.
Hope this helps

My attempt at shape method. Need practice.

My three common mistakes are 1) too much contour 2) too much detail (relates to first) 3) tend to draw the center line "in the center" even when it clearly is not in the center.

I think I’m starting to understand this method more clearly now. There are mistakes, but following along with the demo has made me more comfortable with how these turned out.

Looking good!

Unsurprisingly, these look much better when I follow along the demo than when I try them myself ;)
