added comment in3 Weeks to Better Gesture Drawing
Asked for help
It was my first time doing gesture drawing, and it was a complete disaster, my drawings look like stick figures, and the 1 minute poses were very incomplete, but it was fun, I need to practice a lot more.

Getting back to the course after a long time!! Here are my versions of the drawings before and after the demo.
(I re-took the photo of the version before the demo since the photo I posted earlier wasn't very clear)

Hey there! Welcome back :)
I agree with what the previous comment said, though I also wanted to recommend separating your values according to light and shadow. For example, you could choose your lightest 3 values to be on the light side, with the darkest 2 for the shadow. When these are kept to their respective categories. it keeps your values clean and reinforces the form and lighting of the object. So currently, the value group surrounded by the darkest group would benefit from being darkened into the darkest or second darkest value, to maintain that illusion of shadow. Other than that, I think you have absolutely great simplification and control of your medium -- keep up the good work :)
Hello and welcome back!
I think your drawing turned out quite nice!
The only thing I would suggest (and I think this was mentioned in the demo as well) is to keep the outline of your “value shapes” the same as the actual value of that area.
Also regarding your new attempt at the course, my advice would be to not get discouraged by how much lies ahead. And don’t try to rush it, thinking that you have to somehow catch up. Just focus on your current lesson, work at your own pace, and do the best you can.
I hope this helps!

I finally managed to catch up with the project, this is my first try on the vr girl. The tapered stroke was very difficult for me, I need more practice, I'm going to see the demo and try to correct my mistakes.

First attempt at spider hand. I'm going to try to draw the vr girl before watching the demo.

First attempt at the penguin. I don't like the quality of my lines, I need to work more on that, and in the proportions.
