This is a big improvement, and you're well on the right track now. You'll certainly continue to improve as you get more practice with studying different kinds of animals, and your ability to identify the more nuanced, subtler details will also get better. But for now, I think you've shown a good deal of growth and that you understand the issues I was highlighting in my critiques.

I'll go ahead and mark this lesson as complete.

Next Steps:

Feel free to move onto the 250 cylinder challenge, which is a prerequisite for lesson 6.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Thank you!

Staedtler Pigment Liners

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
