I feel like I'm back in my human anatomy class ((biology study) at Uni:D
I did a few beans, any advice or critism for improvement? I did these as warm-ups in between my busy schedule.

Maybe in the first pose you could move the centreline so that it extends to the bottom part - we can see the pelvis front although it’s a bit twisted. I hope that makes sense...
hello, these are some of the beans that i drew. Did them before Stan and then compared to his drawings. And I have a problem with twisting, takes me a while to decide what way should I twist them.

I'm new as well so I don't know if I'll be of any help. Maybe try to vary the strenth of the lines as Proko does to make the sketching of spheres less visible and to show the curves at the end more?
Any critique very welcome!
My first try on iPad... I’m still struggling with the gesture and I haven’t practiced for a few months now... I don’t like fb so I’m really glad for this site - I really want to get better so any feedback would be much appreciated!

I used bird for the pose, gave him seahorse head with grasshoppers antennae, mushroom texture on the head, fern wing, beatle feet and tail from daisy and jellyfish. For the bkg I used the landscape reference... I know I should polish it but it’s 4 am and I wouldn’t make it to the deadline...
so this is a sketch I made in Procreate that I’m just getting to know...

Asked for help
Hi, I'm Vera from Slovenia - a tiny country in the middle of Europe (ex Yugoslavia). I have a PhD in biology and was a scientific researcher for 20 years but decided to give art a try because drawing at night and doing research at day with 3 kids is not sustainable in the long run as I found out;). (I was sick all the time due to the lack of sleep). So now I am trying to make it as a freelance illustrator and my end goal is to become a children's book illustrator.
I have no art education (except online classes) so any help and criticism are more than welcome! I am immensely grateful to Proko, all the professionals and everyone for taking the time for looking at this - you are the best!
Thank you so much!

If you want to make her naked she would look more real if her breasts would fall more naturally (especially the front breast). In case you will dress her up, it's ok since there are bras that could make breasts look this way. Sometimes a bit less perfect is more attractive because it gives character and real-feel. I hope this helps.
BKG: what are you going for? Sports car, beach, surfer-board,...

If you are still together, you can just tell him to pose for you and you'll see in the reference picture where the shirt would go. You can also go really loose on the shirt so it won't be so obvious if you don't want to deal with all that. But I think it would be worth it because it's a beautiful portrait!

Great drawings - I'm sorry I can't help with the critique because I am waaaay behind you... I love figuary, too!

I'm not a pro and I don't know your reference so take it with a grain of salt: usually, the bridge of the nose is indented and then the nose sticks out. This comes from my biology point of view - the two sides of the scull-bones meet in the middle and that is the low point of the brow-ridge - in case you wanted feedback on that as well. I don't know much about the paper problems; you have probably already tried different softness of the pencil...
