I feel like I may have answered this somewhere else - but the short answer is that for this lesson, you should consider the demos to be separate from your assigned work, specifically because the assignments ask for specific kinds of animals.
Yeah I asked on the subreddit too since I wasn't getting responses for a while, but thanks for getting back to me.
While you're here I have another question about lesson 5, when we're doing 2 drawings for each animal, do both drawings need to be from the same photo or are they each from different photos of the same type of animal?
Different photos of the same type of animal. You can even use multiple photos for a single drawing, in the case that one has certain parts obscured.
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).
