^ agreed. I love what you did with the atmosphere. The way you positioned the various limbs was pretty smart too. The only thing I would add is maybe having the thing she's/they're spinning around have a bright orange/pink light emitting from it to illuminate the scene more (I assumed it was like a baton lit on fire).

Thank you guys! And thank you for the feedback! I got super lazy right at the end a decided it was too much effort to paint one (1) light effect, so i've decided they're magic hearts or something (not really though, they are indeed supposed to be some sort of fire thing, i'll go back and throw on some lighting as the top is kinda dark ^^)

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

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).
