Hi everyone. I'm actually still in the middle of the Drawing Basics course, and getting close to the perspective part. I didn't want to miss out on the critiques here, so I decided to start with this class a little early. To be honest, perspective is still very new to me. I can barely even draw. In terms of masters, I'm still new to this, so I don't even know that many works where perspective is the key point. I've only seen like two drawings by Kim Jung Gi. I love manga and anime, and know that perspective is essential for drawing; I tried to limit myself to just two mangaka, and ventured out from there. Masashi Kishimoto. NARUTO. I think many in recent years either don't know or have forgotten that Kishimoto can draw like this. NARUTO certainly has its flaws, but the quality of drawing is not one of them. Yukinobu Tatsu. Dandadan. He's just an exquisite artist. I think someone else uploaded this page too. Hiroshi Yoshida. Golden Temple in Amritsar. I was very happy to see his work included in the video, so I decided to put one of his works that I particularly like. Scott Robertson. Inktober motorcycle drawing. Robertson's book How to Draw gets recommended all the time! I haven't bought it yet, but his drawings are clearly that of a master of perspective. M. C. Escher. House of Stairs. I think many of us here have an M. C. Escher work in our posts. Big picture goal. It's hard for me to judge what's realistically attainable in the span of the next few months. Maybe those of you who have more experience with perspective can advise me on this. Perhaps a capstone project where I draw a simple car from an angle, in two point perspective?

I went with Shaun Tan's Blossom Eater for my master study. I'm pretty new to drawing, but I'm quite confident he's using a light shadow method of shading. I struggled with connecting my lines to each other, something Tan does very cleanly. My proportions are also wrong. I'm also not quite sure how Tan's drawing his lines.

First image is hierarchy of importance, second is shadow and light. Both drawn before watching the demo.

You guys have some great drawings! Makes me nervous about uploading mine. I haven't watched the demo at the time of drawing, so I was confused as to whether I needed that plank for the snail. The proportions are also off at the tail (?). Biggest challenge of the boots was the shoelaces, without a doubt. The front outsole of the boots were tricky too.

Pear on top is my first attempt, before watching the demo. Bottom pear is after watching demo. Any advice and constructive criticism is welcome!
