I’m confused as to how to or where to post “assignments” — where did people place these images used for the latest critique in the perspective course.

Hi guys! This is my first attempt at the rapids. I would appreciate any feedback! I was quite happy with how it turned out but I would like to try out other angles that are less straight forward that this front on view.

I tried to draw water in perspective, besides the fact that its a but messy, i think i drew it in too strong perspective. do anybody know how to fit 3 point perspective onto a normal sized piece of paper without it looking too extreme?
i would also like any other critique!🙂👨🎨

Did studies from a few artists recommended by Proko for line quality. I like to copy and the move on to a imagination drawing using what I have just learned to better sink in the knowledge. I'll probably do a few more of those.

Stan, I really like doing the practice assignments, They make me feel good because I feel successful when I do them. However I don't really spend time doing personal projects. Whenever I draw I just do the most recent lesson or a lesson from the past that I felt like I needed more time doing.
However I am worried though if I am stunting my growth by not drawing something for me- or rather something original, either from a reference or from imagination. How important would you say it is to make sure I spend a few days a week drawing for me and not doing old projects over and over again?@@
For reference I love drawing characters but they never look as good as I like them to. So i default to doing drawing that makes me feel comfortable.

Hi @conclorde! To answer your first question: NO! You are never too old to learn how to draw.
Now regarding your second question: That depends.
Those two are professionals with years of experience. You'll need to do a lot of drawing to reach their levels.
It is hard, but it is possible with enough hard work, a good community and the right resources. Luckily for you, you can find two of those things right here at Proko!

Tried animating a box moving in space. This was good practice. Drew a lot of lines lol

Had some trouble keeping the shading even using a charcoal pencil. I might need to revisit the video on sharpening :-|

Hello everyone!
This is my first attempt of the pear. In this assignment I specifically used 4 different pencils for different values to avoid pressing too hard on the paper, which I tend to do without noticing.
When I finished the pear, I didn't know what to do with the shadow on the surface, so I left it blank. In retrospective, I should have made my dark shadow on the pear a bit lighter so I would have some room for the darkest shadow on the surface like so many of you did. That's definitely something I will try to do next time.
I also found that my woodless graphite pencils is a bit darker than my wooden ones. I don't know if it's normal because they're very cheap. But this assignment does make me more familiar with the tools I have so I can make the best use of them.
