yeah, thats the one i have. ok thanks for the response.
I'll do plenty of small ones with template and ill try my luck free hand at some larger ones towards the end.
We have all been there. Dont give up.
Try reading through the Tiger Head demo again. Really pay attention to how the muzzle and the eye sockets fit on the head like puzzle pieces.
It is possible that you may have chosen a reference with a very difficult angle. Maybe try something easier to start before you attempt those different angles.
Keep trying, you will figure it out with enough good practice.
Im not really qualified to give you any negative feedback, but i did want to say that i really liked your drawings.
Your organic intersections are well thought out showing how the forms bend and react to the other surfaces.
You are doing a great job building up the constructions on the animals. I also had a bit of trouble with cat muzzles, keeping the perspective correct is very hard with the foreshortening.
The way you built up the legs on the gazelle is really well done.
By the time you got to your final mash up monster it seems you really had a good understanding of this lesson.
The muzzle on that squirrel eating yoda monster is well built. Love it.
This is my first time doing a critique, but in relation to my work, i would definetly consider you ready to move to the 250 cylinder challenge. Keep it up!
Next Steps:
Start the 250 cylinder challenge before lesson 6
got it, thank you. I'll probably keep things in line on my first attempt and then start pushing my bounds going forward.
got it, thank you for the response.
I use an app called "sketch a day" for fun drawings.
It delivers a single word prompt each day at 5pm and you can work on the drawing and submit it each day. Lets you be creative about what to draw for each prompt. I often draw from reference.
Also, the community is nice and you can see what other members are doing.
its all free.
Ok thank you.
FYI, i started watching those 1994 perspective lectures. Awesome resource. Hopefully will be something that helps me in these future lessons.
Dont be alarmed at how fast im replying. I really went through all your notes and took my time on these.
thank you so much for your attention to detail on these. i finally am understanding sausage legs first, then add form.
face perspective is still a bit wonky but overall im understanding the puzzle better.
thanks! lesson 4 was all about sausages for insect legs, but with animals it looked like there were several approaches to legs. But you still may be correct if the newer videos are stressing sausages.
I also started with limited supplies and not the exact right pens.
Its ok to start with whatever have. Even if all you can have are ball point pens.
The most important thing is to practice making the marks confidently and following all the other instructions.
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
