Hey everyone, hope you are okay. I have a question that got basically nothing to do with the vídeo. Contextualizing, I'm a level 1, I know we didn't reach Values yet, but I'm thinking in buying one of Proko's color course, to do along with Drawing Basics. And I wanted your opinion, you guys think its too early for that or its fine to do so? If its fine, which course is the most reccommended for a beginner?

I think it's too early. I have bought the Drawing Head and Figure courses as well, and those require to have a solid understanding of the basics. For now, I recommend you go with the Drawing Basics, and keep drawing anything for now, apply new concepts that you learn here in your everyday drawings. And most of all - be kind to yourself. There will be lots of frustrations, and that is ok. If you make a mistake, it means you will get better at drawing. But you need to keep pushing and drawing, whether it's fruits, landscapes, animals, everything that you see.

I not sure if I did it right, I will do others, but I did shoes again, because it was the only drawing I saw that I thought I could do 😂 When you're a beginner you don't know if you're making progress 🤔 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj3jKXuPvA5/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Try blocking the figure out in basic shapes lightly, then compare the the difference body parts to one another to get the right proportions, looks like you got it, its just your proportions are of, the stomach the eyes and the head all need to be cut in half horizontally, you made them to long.

I didn't know if I should had make-up the "texture" , so I just simplifyed to CSI lines, hope I got it right

Almost didn't post it, because of shame lol.... Well, attempted 3 times at 3 different days with 3 different approaches, but to be honest, I think I have no idea what I'm doing. (need to correct that)

You're a beginner placed in vast ocean of "what we dont know", so any direction to start is great :) I love that actually you've added more character to the penguin that there was in reference. Good job, keep it up :)
@ati
The 1 was before the demo. and 2 was after... I'm struggling with the lack of perspective, but maybe its too soon to think on this. I will try again
@ati
That's my second attempt, still very insecure, but I hope it got better
@ati
I tried my best, hope it okay.
