Hey, here's my next attempt. This time after watching the demo. I know the pear is a bit too high and could be tilted more to the right. I struggled with cleanly separating the darkest tone from the dark one, and looking back, I think I could’ve simplified it better. Gonna watch the critique now and give it another shot 😊

Here’s my approach to the project. I believe I managed to keep the proportions right, though I relied on the eyeballing method. Now, I’m going to watch the demo and take another shot at it. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I don’t know why, but I love the traditional approach. Every time I spend time working digitally, I get this uneasy feeling that it’s not real. It’s funny and a bit strange, but the physical surface just makes me happy 😊 + Some of my doodles

Hello everyone, I’m starting this course again, but this time I really want to focus. Last time, I was very distracted. I took part in many courses, but I didn’t finish any. Now it’s time to take things step by step. My goal is to draw in a very realistic way and, of course, to paint. I’m especially interested in still life, landscapes, and figure drawing/painting. My biggest challenge is that I get fascinated by too many things, which makes it hard to focus on just one. I graduated from art school and realized that continuing to learn on my own is quite difficult. That’s why I truly appreciate this site because of its community. I believe having people to communicate with and support each other’s growth is incredibly important. Wish me luck, and I wish the same for all of you.

Here, I stayed with the construction theme and sketched another piece of heavy machinery. I started by focusing on the simple geometry and then added more details in the second sketch.

Here’s my attempt for today. I know the lines could be more consistent, but I focused more on understanding the topic 😊

Hi, Here’s my attempt. It's a very enjoyable and enriching exercise. I plan to practice regularly. I know I could have paid more attention to the proportions. 😊

I am always amazed at how much awareness we can gain at every step of the creative process, and it will never stop fascinating me. This is one of the reasons why I draw.

Hello, May I ask where you usually get your references? Do you create them yourself or use online sources? What is your opinion on getting references from the internet?

The author of the works: Syd Mead. 1. Diminution: 4/5. I feel that in some places, the cars could be smaller or larger. Convergence: 5/5. Perfect. Foreshortening: 4/5. It's beautifully visible in the spot where the cars are turning. Overlap: 5/5. Perfect. Atmosphere: 4/5. I would give it 5/5, but the billboard in the foreground really bothers me; it should be a bit less prominent. 2. Diminution: 3/5. I especially like this in the case of the ski lift, The people walking up the stairs could be a bit larger. Convergence: 4/5. It adds a nice sense of dynamism. Foreshortening: 4/5. It's clearly visible in the case of the car and the wall in the foreground. Overlap: 5/5. Just right Atmosphere: 4/5. In some places, it could be less detailed, especially in the background. For example, the space behind the man in the yellow jacket.
