Thank you for this wonderful course!
First I watched the demo.
This morning I worked from the photo myself. Right image is traditionally with charcoal pencil 2b, a different brand which seems more like graphite. Background is done with a darker and softer kind.
The image at the bottom is finished with some smudging and brushes in Procreate.
LESSON NOTES
I use Bridgman references to map out forms, edges, and values on a torso, clarifying how muscles intertwine under strong lighting.

I'm sorry for another pic but this one is from my view while I draw, which is a bit slanted. I'm trying to get the photo right and will be more careful from now on as I better know how now.
Im a beginner just learning edges. I thought this course would be good to add to my course load. I am pleased with my results. I am definitely learning. Here are my results from videos 3 and 4.
I tried to concentrate on the core and cast shadows and how they work on the form. The charcoal pencil is hard to control - this took me ages!
Very well done!
Yesterday I gave it another go and tried to follow the instructions on page 28 in Watts on Bridgman Vol I, but the result was very poor so I threw it out. Yours looks really good!
I agree that the charcoal pencil is difficult to control. You will be a pro at it soon. Your drawing looks great already.
A beginning...I am new to holding the pencil this way but it's cool. My first circle shocked me as it was good. The pic is a start...I will persevere from here.
Thank you for this wonderful course!

Looks amazing and deals with so many forms at once really well!! I’m actually studying abs right now so I’m going to analyze this and learn XD
