I decided to continue practicing lineweight for depth and form. I went back to my previous drawings before I enrolled to proko. I redrew my OC wings with what I learned so far. Left image: Before I enrolled to proko. Middle image: Using depth and form, wanted to show the wings are in front. Right image: reference. I am ok with it, feedback is always welcome!

Left: before demo Right: after watching demo light and shadow. By far the hardest exercise to me compared to the hierarchy of importance. I watched stan demo twice to understand how he is choose his line width and saturation. I tried my best on the second attempt, something just feels off to me, what do you guys think? feedback is always welcome! :)

Left: 1st attempt before watching demo. (Hierarchy of importance exercise.) Right: 2nd attempt post demo. I loved this exercise because: 1. it switched up the learning from sketching to now only worrying about linework to practice. 2. Seeing the difference before and after watching the demo. After writing down some notes, I returned to the drawing and did it again. I can see the difference and its amazing how much I learned from this single exercise. Feedback is a welcome :)

I suspect that I missed something with this exercise. Off to watch the demo for the “ah-ha” moment…

Well, I think it’s fair to say I was too focused on getting it right v. thinking about the subject and expressing that through more expressive lines.

To keep myself honest, I’m posting these. I had to redo the boots a few times as my brain refused to let go of its own idea of how laces should look and let me just draw what I could see on the paper.
