1: Before Demo or Critique, 2: After Demo, 3: After Critique. This one was fun and interesting but also a bit of a struggle in that I feel like I was actually becoming less confident with my process of making boxes over time. Not sure if its because im trying too hard to stick to the blobs, or if its just hard for me to imagine orientations for the boxes in the first place or what. Definitely going to keep practicing these, but any feedback/critique for these ones would be appreciated!

I realize the way I was connecting the different pieces doesn't really make sense, I was focusing on just drawing boxes more than I was focusing on making a hand make sense I guess. Getting those really harshly foreshortened edges is tough, I either don't make it foreshortened enough or it ends up looking distractingly distorted. Any feedback/critique appreciated!

I see what you mean -- great job with your self-critique. I think next time you will see a lot of improvement. What sticks out to me the most is the overlapping of the second set of the knuckles in your drawing -- I would have the lower segment of the finger underneath the upper segment like I have here. I would also taper the fingertip a bit more. Overall great job, you’re on the right track!

Just tried to do these intuitively without much in the way of planning, not sure if I really got it. Might try to do more with more structure from the faces but that is definitely intimidating. Any critique is appreciated.

It was a little painful how this project revealed just how little my line quality has improved, but it is what it is. This one is a bit simplistic maybe, I want to try a few more after watching the demo/critique.

Attempts before watching demo and critique, really interesting and fun but really challenging too, not really sure im getting anywhere on my own which is why im gonna do the rest of the zip after the demo. Im a beginner, so any feedback is welcome.

You're definitely on the right track! I can tell you are understanding and applying the concept of gesture lines. Keep going!

I know it probably looks like the polar opposite, but I genuinely am trying really hard on this assignment. This has been more exhausting for me than the portrait was, for whatever reason. Its like I can understand and be really engaged with the lesson and theory, but actually applying such a simple thing is just a herculean task for me, makes me feel like an idiot :( Sorry, anyways, I plan on finishing the rest of the zip file tomorrow because just these pages took me all day on and off. Any advice would be very much appreciated, I feel lost and down.
