Use the three reference images of clean line drawings and sketch them using simple loose lines. Don't try to match the cleanliness of these drawings. Instead, sketch them out with energetic, tapered strokes. Don't hesitate. Just practice moving your arm with confidence. If you draw some lines and then you realize that, Oh, shoot, I need to curve that more. Go ahead and just draw the new curve right over it. As you get more confident that you've found the shape, you can darken those lines and the lighter lines start to disappear. Focus on the big idea and the shapes the lines represent, rather than on each individual line.
For you, Level 2 monster trucks, I want you to start with this Level 1 project as a warmup, and then head over to the Learning to Sketch from Imagination project page for your instructions.
If you'd like to have a chance to be included in the upcoming critique videos, you must submit your drawings below by March 9th 2023.
Good luck and please have some fun!
Hands are hard guys, haha. I feel ok with this assignment, I think im assuming details where I need to be more focused on what im observing. Feeling better with line confidence and tapering my strokes though!
Proportions not the greatest. I honestly thought the penguin would be the easiest, but I think it is the toughest lol. Also I am being stingy with my sketchbook paper and did them all on the same page.
Really nice assignment, I feel that I'm getting more confident with my lines. Lots of room for improvement though!
Messed up my proportions a fair amount on each, but feeling more confident with my lines compared to when I started a couple of days ago.

Proportions are no biggie at the moment- later lessons will go in depth into measurements and training your eye. The confidence will continue to build as you keep practicing, so keep it up!
I finished the task. Now I'm ready for level two so I can put what I've learned into practice.

Nice! If you're able to with your device, I'd try using a brush with size/opacity affected by pen pressure. That way you can sketch and explore and find the shapes and proportions of your subject. Keep it up! :)
This was pretty hard. I tried to make my lines clean, but I think I ended up focusing so much on each line that when I zoomed out halfway through the drawing process I realised my proportions were all off. The hand look me two tries, I gave up on the first one pretty quick

You did a great job! Excellent searching lines that I can see on the penguin. Since you recognized where you focus more on the line rather than the big picture of your drawing, now you can be mindful of it as you continue! Your proportions look pretty good here, too. Nice work!
This one is quite hard for me, especially the hand. Apologize about the shadow in the penguin drawing. I sketched both before taking the photo. My struggle is that somehow, even though I told myself it's a sketch, my subconscious still tried to make it more precise. And I'm still struggling to make more confident lines. I will try the VR girl soon.

It takes practice to change your mindset! Noticing your subconscious as you draw and shifting away from that desire will come with time. You're at a good spot with your lines, and your confidence will continue building with each new drawing! Good luck!
I really struggled with this assignment. Placing the girl with the booth on the page to capture everything was tough. Hopefully, my lines will become more confident as I progress through the course.
Tried my best with confident lines. I wasn't sure what the android was doing so I gave them a lightsaber. Also, that penguin is money, and people should recognize.
spider man 1st attempt felt like the fingers took my a while to get proportions right but i tried making confident lines on each attempt
did the penguin that turned out a little chubby but felt more confident in my lines and didnt stress over messing up! Feedback is appreciated! (Pre-walkthrough)
I don't know why but that penguin had sort of a... disgusted expression. I felt kinda nervous drawing it while it looked at me like that. xD
is this just about drawing loosely ? do i try to measure the proportions first or do i jump right in ? do i do the enveloping method to try to get the proportions right? it gets so messy if i cant erase and i have to figure out the proportions through searching lines
Despite the efforts, its not a real hand.. I do not understand what i am doing wrong to mess up the proportions...
