Hello Koigic,
Many thanks for the critique;
I would like to ask, though, where do you see the constructional mistake on the horses? I've checked back on them looking at the diagram you draw on the 6th drawing as an example and I can't see where the mistake is.
In any case, here are my revisions of the running rat and the donkey demo's
Thanks again,
Zak
My bad, I should have specified it was the first horse drawing that did not have the pelvis ellipse: https://imgur.com/qZItjBQ
Your second horse construction is correct as far as I can tell, except for the line at the stomach area, you should have added it as a form instead: https://imgur.com/rBNaVAp
Another thing I forgot to point out is that you didn't draw the sausages for the limbs, but instead a series of lines joined with a contour curve in some of your drawings. I don't think that is a major mistake and you didn't do that when you were following the informal demos, so I think you just need to remember to draw them going forward.
Since this is the last lesson (I believe?) for organic construction, I think you should make sure you understand the proper constructional steps, which was why I felt it would be a good idea to follow a few informal demos, even though I think you actually realised your own mistake after the second horse.
Anyways, good job on completing lesson 5! I think you can move on to the 250 cylinder challenge.
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).
