Drawing sausages was fun (Sausage intersections are my favorite). Textures are also fun but exhausting. Hope it would be easier with more experience!

Thanks for the critique beforehand !

Overall you did a great job!

Here are some things you can work on:

  1. Line confidence(I noticed that some of your lines felt a little wobbly)

  2. Focus on simplifying your sausage shapes

I hope this helps!

thank you!

How to simplify, to be exact? I showed early versions of my sausages in discord and someone said me that there are too clean and unnaturally ideal.

Ideally you want to draw your sausages as Mr. Uncomfortable detailed in the Text dissection video. Hope that helps!

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.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens

Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.

Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
