First, things first, don’t forget to breathe. It’s ok to do quantity when you’re doing these kinds of exercises. In fact, it’s recommended to do tens, hundreds, thousands of quick studies rather than one very long study. You’ll improve much faster this way. Second, what do you notice when you see “mistakes”? Take a mental note, or better yet, write down what you’ve noticed. You don’t need to know how to fix it yet, or try to solve it right there. Just take a note. Eventually you’ll find patterns in the kinds of mistakes you’re making, and you might try different solutions as you keep making more studies. Maybe you’ll run into a tutorial, or re-watch a previous lesson and suddenly it’ll click. Of course it’s still important to do longer, more deliberate studies sometimes, but I personally would put more focus on the quick studies to build a habit of practising and build up that mileage. Just take it one step at a time and you’ll be fine. You’re doing great!

Nice job doing so many robo beans! It definitely feels like you’re getting more comfortable doing the exercise. You could take it even further by working on the line quality (i.e. less scratchy lines). If your hand is feeling tired, you might want to double-check your hand to make sure you aren’t gripping too hard. Make sure to take breaks as well!

it feels like your biggest problem is you cant draw object in forshortened or extreme angels so i reccomend you to draw cubes or cylinder by looking at referances. if you write 3d cube to google you will find lots of 3d models just like the ones on proko videos. but i think youre drawings are pretty nice especially i like the way you thinking at the 14th model

Hi @civon, nice gesture drawings! They already have a lot of life and movement. I understand your concern. Thanks for reaching out :) When you get stuck it's a great idea to ask someone for help. - I like to pass around some practice tips that helped that me when I took the course, and I think they might actually be the solution to your problem. I'll write some other thoughts below, but I think these practice tips will be all you need. I attached an image of them. (OTHER THOUGHTS: "So, how much thinking is required when doing this?" Good question. I'll try answering it: I think the key is variation. When practicing it can be good to switch between different tempos. If for example your drawings come out stiff or if you're scared of doing drawings where you let go, you might have to practice with no thinking at all, just to nurture your wild side and to get energy into your drawings. But if you already know how to access that side, and you notice that you have sloppy habits or other stuff that you want to improve on, then you might want to do some slow motion stuff where you really think through how you place your lines. You switch between thinking and not thinking (or stages inbetween) depending on your current needs. If I would pin down an ideal stage it would be: not thinking, but feeling. Your brain is really active. You imagine striking the same pose as the figure you're drawing. You imagine how it would feel to be that person. The weight your legs would have to carry. The stretch your torso would feel. The emotions you would feel if that pose has a story. The person is angry. What does that feel like? The person is happy. What does that feel like? You're like an actor through the page. But you don't think. "What line is best to put down to emphasize the gesture?" "How should I hold my pencil?" "How thick should the line be?". Those thoughts can be really handy, and many times necessary, when practicing and trying to improve aspects of your drawings. But they can also be a distraction. Again, the key is variation.) Hope this helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions!

Hey there! That's a lot of beans! I think most of them look really great; it's easy to visualize the orientation of the figure you were looking at based on what you've drawn. I think the only suggestion I have is that you might try drawing the beans bigger; the tiniest ones are a bit vague just because they're hard to see. Other than that, I think you did a great job!
