Looks like you weren't the only one replying a little late, haha.
Overall, I think you've done a good job at conveying the forms of the animals that you've redone. The main thing I want to bring attention to is your line work. It's really important to have clean lines, as they allow you to better convey an object's "3-D-ness", as well as making techniques like adding a boldness to your lines more convincing.
Good luck on whatever you may pursue in your life!
Next Steps:
move on to next lesson/challenge
spend more time doing line work warm-ups
hi yeah late you know how busy life is anyways thanks so much hope all your wishes come true and make your dreams true
i was wondering can i have example about linework
Take the form on top of the horse's body for example.
Notice how the how the way you drew it makes it look very bumpy. While that may be what you saw at the time, it certainly doesn't convey solidity. If those lines had been smoother, it might've looked different than what you were seeing in your reference image, but it would read better as a solid, 3-dimensional object.
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
