Lesson 5: Applying Construction to Animals

(The birds are out of order because I somehow missed them at first, they ended up between the quadruped pages)
For this one, I tried to focus on making sure that every line I drew was part of a fully-defined 3D shape that looked three-dimensional on the page. In some places that made things a bit cluttered, mainly around heads and necks, but for the most part I think they turned out all right. Adding some line weight and shadows at the end made it easier to tell what was going on.
There were a few cases where my first few shapes turned out to have wonky proportions or positioning, and there wasn't much to be done about it - for instance, my first camel's body was too big for its legs and head (#9), so I ended up with a fat camel. I kept going and tried to make the most of it. I managed to fix that in the second page of camels, at least.
