first of all good effort

  • i could see some problems in line weight add line weight where we need to grab more attention instead of doing it everywhere

  • construct the forms on top in relation to the base forms we created initially

  • i think you are doing sketches with a marker try to get some fineliners it improve the quality of markmaking

  • thats it best wishes for lesson 5

Next Steps:

draw some more insects if you can

after revising lesson 4 notes

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

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.
Staedtler Pigment Liners

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).
