    Thanks very much

    So helpful!

    I did try to follow your previous critique but I was rather rusty and found it difficult to break down what I seeing and apply the lessons properly.

    I should have studied some of the suggested Demos more throughly

    This critique has really helped me grasp some of the concepts better. I’ll be sure to make some revisions and apply it

    Much appreciated!

    Hi

    I know its been a while...

    sorry about that

    I know I messed up the Lion's Mane which I ought to have left out, or left as simple forms.

    And I couldn't see the "feet" of the Komodo Dragon so I had to make them up

    Hey,

    Thanks for the great feedback. It helped a lot

    Hopefully these are a little closer to the mark

    I know I messed up the detail/shaddows on this one unfortunately... https://i.imgur.com/mI9LTC8.jpg

    On looking again I don't think I really hit the mark here... still looking pretty flat

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef

PureRef

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.

When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.

Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
