Thank you for this, I do realize that comparing myself to other students is just asking for unneeded frustration. We definitely do all learn at a different pace and somethings will be easier for people to comprehend. Honestly I came to the conclusion that I just want to try and do basic construction of the animals instead of adding in the texture or details to them. This is probably deviating away from Uncomfortable's method but I just think adding everything, especially to a complex figure like an animal, is just too much for me at the moment. I plan to stick with this lesson a little bit longer than I did with the other lessons. I will also try your method in constructing the animals. Again, I appreciate your response :)

Of course! I know how frustrating getting art block or even just stuck in a tutorial can be. For me I have to keep myself doing things I like, and if I find myself avoiding I need to step back and see what is causing that.

I can only do so many comissions a month for that reason. I need the freedom to take my time as well as not stick to one thing too long. It may not be everyones thing (I have friends who HAVE to finish a piece before moving on) but Im the opposite. If I dont have at least two things to work on and move between when I hit that block I never finish anything xD

If I can Ill link to my favorite tutorial I used when stuck, I just dont know if I have the link anymore.

How to Draw by Scott Robertson

When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
