Asked for help
Ok so this is embarassing.. I quit for about a year and a half because of this assignment.
I struggle with perfectionism and undertaking a drawing from Eliza Ivanova/Eleeza is no joke. Absolutely love her work but trying to draw similar lines to her gave me so much anxiety. This master study brought me to my knees!
After a year and a half I have managed to push through the discomfort and overcome the fear.
I know I haven't got her line quality down pat but its hard to replicate the line weight when drawing with the ipad.

This is soo relatable! I myself struggle with perfectionism and doing these master studies was quite out of my comfort zone. On going for an attempt I have these some sort of anxiety feeling that what if I messed up or I didn't make it appealing enough.
But as Stan said, we are in the learning process and it's okay to make mistakes. As for now, we are focused more on line weight, so incorrect proportions or perspective shouldn't bother us. And it's not super important to draw perfectly, we put ourselves with these expectations which causes us to feel pressurized. Just a slight mindset shift is needed.
I'm also learning this as we are going through, and it's quite difficult to let go these things, but again practice is the key. Eventually, it would become second nature and it won't be a thing to feel pressured about. Great drawing btw!

It should be difficult. Eleeza is the best of the best. If it was easy, everyone would draw like her.
Your drawing came out BEAUTIFUL. You did a really good job with the expression on the face and expressive marks surrounding. Please draw more.
Drawing is a humbling thing. Just keep at it and things will get easier.

These are my submissions for the assignment.
References, undersketch and some of my ideas. I tried to push the poses and the limbs a little to give them a little bit more personality.
I just realised I failed completely at this exercise hahaha. Went way too perfect with mine. I kept erasing my sketching lines because I wanted it to be perfect.. I guess I need to learn from everyone else that it's ok to just be searching for the right line sometimes.
I realised when I did my hand I wasn't thinking of skin being pulled at all, I was so focused on just copying what I saw so none of my details really matched up properly in the end and I wasn't sure why. I guess it's important to really imagine what exactly you are drawing.
I love these demos, always really learn so much from them.

Here are my attempts for the three referece images. I think I struggled the most with the hand... :l
The penguin was probably the most fun to do.
these look good but I think you focused on clean lines and not the sketch lines Stan asked for in the project

Here were my submissions..
I really struggled with both but I think I realised that it's all about getting the main shapes.
Only realised this at the end when I was doing the laces
I think I took too long in general because I was so worried about it being perfect and I did the boots as separate shapes instead of just one big shape.
Learning from this for next time. :)
