Lesson 5: Applying Construction to Animals
6:41 PM, Thursday March 18th 2021
Hi
This is my submission for the 5th lesson on Drawabox.
Turned out to be quite a bit more challenging than I had expected but hopefully I did OK.
I included some demo drawings as well.
A few remarks, things that I'm not perfectly happy about:
-
I'm still struggling with my lines. Finding it quite difficult to keep them not feel too sketchy. I am trying to "draw them with confidence" but with an exercise like this I really failed to do so. Imagining where a line should go before actually drawing the line proved to be very challenging and more often than not, after drawing a line, I realised that perhaps I could have done it differently.
-
I'm not really happy about the birds I drew but I suppose it was the 1st exercise and I think I improved later.
-
I feel like I still used an excessive amount of line-weight at times. Even though that was one of the major problems in my last submission (which reminds me, I should have read the remarks in between the exercises in this lesson, just to keep them in mind).
I tried to keep the drawings clean of excess details and focus more on the construction.
Hopefully I did well.
Thank you.
