Thanks for the critique Marshall! I've got to learn to check my work before I ink it! I didn't even notice it was misspelled until after I posted the project.

Orthos Project: I tried to draw a car but messed up the proportions when drawing the 3/4 view. Maybe I should do this in pencil next time. 😔
Great work and yea, the 3/4 view is a little squished but you already recognized that so you, my friend, already solved the problem!

I just started digital drawing so I am really struggling with line quality, but I was kinda proud of this one. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Keep up the awesome work everyone. I really enjoy seeing everyone's progress!
These lines look great! If you want a bit more taper on them you can turn on pressure opacity in photoshop. If you're working in procreate, you can try to buy a brush pack that has brushes with pressure opacity. That will fade your lines off at the ends to make the stroke more tapered. Hope this helps!

I loved the demos; they were super helpful! A question though. Is better to draw one line through the form (like an arm or leg) or alternating lines on either side of the form? Sometimes I'm not sure what sort of line I should be using.

This was a fun project although I did have some trouble defining which forms were in front and which were behind. I know we're not supposed to shade, but I was only able to clarify the forms by filling a plane with tone because my construction lines were making the picture too busy to be clearly readable. I guessed that it's probably because I used a pen for the initial lines because it's hard to see pencil on the toned paper. Should I try using a thinner pen for the initial lines or switch to a pencil?
I tried the project again digitally and it turned out a lot better! Thanks for the suggestion @Smithies .

Can't thank Patrick enough for sharing his knowledge in this course. I used reference from the Draw This figure drawing livestream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Up8A2wmdFzU&t=4766s

Gesture Master Studies Project: Is there a way to keep the drawing consistent with what I'm visualizing when drawing from imagination? Sometimes I start by imagining some sort of front view, but it ends up looking like a 3/4 view. Is there a way to fix this?
I also had some trouble with the 4th master study (4th from the top left). I tried multiple ways but each time the pose felt stiff. Any advice on that one?
