loving this class and Earthsworld! thank you!

I’ve been studying with your and Steve Hamptons construction courses but still feel like I’m missing something crucial? Proportions have gotten better but things still look a little wonky maybe because I’m losing perspective? My portraits look like if someone was describing the reference to me.

Hi, here's my assignment. I've emphasized some of the features a little more than others. I'm surprised to see how much progress I've made just one week into the course. I can't wait for the next lessons.

I went slightly insane on this (as I was intimidated into jamming everything I learned thus far into these three heads). I'm hoping to learn how to ink + cell shade properly. while i can (kind of) use the lasso tool to cel-shade, it's not great and always feels unnatural.

Earthsworld is so goated its one of my favorite ref sites! For the assignment I usually have the hardest time with getting the finish of a drawing to look how I want it. I can sketch around all day and usually like the result but when it comes to fully defining lines I don't know quite how to do it, especially with planes and wrinkles/face folds its hard to know how much information to keep/omit in a line drawing. Any critique welcome!

I am submitting my assignment.

Here are my 3 portraits and the references. I tried to be particular with my use of lines for the wrinkles depending on the age of the person. I feel like I struggle to draw nice eyelashes. Definitely think I have a better grasp of the volumes and structure.

Hello! I did 3 portrait studies. They turned out to only vaguely look the person drawn. Besides that something about them bothers me. Maybe I need to work on my line quality. Happy for any kind of critique/suggestions :)

Here are 3 portraits. One simple study, the other incorporates a few references as well as some composition and one-point perspective practice for another course. Challenges: - The relationship between the eyes and eyebrows - must have redrawn them 100 times! Curious if you have any suggestions, especially for how to place the brow hair shape. Do they fall below or above the fontal plane change? - Not the objective of this exercise, but rendering the forms using pencil and paper was tricky. I tried to imitate using the nice cross contours you do in your lessons, but mine look a little crazy here! Let me know any feedback :)
