Hello! I tried to play with the roundness of the head and eyes of the axolotl, also in how to simplify the details of the extremities of the head. I think I started very stiff but as I made more I got more loose. For the one from imagination I went simple and I made an axolotl greeting the viewer. Feedback is appreciated

These are so cute! I think for the last one, you could make the pose more dynamic by introducing pinch and stretch. A concept that is more important as you get into figure drawing.
I really like his little hand waving at the viewer!

The penguin looks freaking great! You nailed that thing!!!
The thumb and index finger on the Spider-man hand feel pretty far away from the middle two fingers as a product of some proportion changes. It wasn't TOO extreme of a shift but did stick out while looking at it. I overlaid the two images loosely to compare, like Stan shows in a later Basics lesson. A good check for this would be using the size of the middle fingers against the size of the index.
Please keep sharing what you work on! I'd like to see more of it!

Really nice and clean!! The penguin and hand are looking good, I love the mix of straights and curves in the hand. Great job!

Hello :) this is my first attemp at landmarks assigment. Any feedback is very appreciated!
I like the gesture. The landmarks for the pelvic bone seem too low and too small. Look for the bumps on the body to find more accurate positions for them.
So cute! Nice work, @Karla Siejba!
Looking at this piece, I’d say you seem to have pretty good observation skills, and studying drawing will probably be very beneficial to your painting actually. Drawing will help you better see, understand and design forms, and if you add some knowledge of light and color to that, you’ll see a boost in the way you handle painting as well.
As a suggestion for the long run, I’d also say you could take some time in the future to learn more about composition too. This should give you more tools to go beyond the photo reference and start to play around with putting more of your own ideas and creative solutions on the canvas.
Hope this helps!
Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
Cheers!
Thank you so much! I am also doing my drawing courses but yeah I have no idea about composition. Sometimes I would like to paint or draw several things on a scene and I have no idea how to do that without it looking weird. Hope a course from Proko can help me out but I would appreciate any book or course suggestion on the topic :)

Hello! this doesn't count officially as the assignment, but it just happens that I was trying to draw a sheep and I thought I could send my work in process to see if I got the idea right. Any feedback is appreciated.
Hey there! I think you got ithe idea right, but I'd say you could focus a lot more on describing the geometric forms with cross contour lines and thinking about every single shape you draw as some form of modified cylinder/box/sphere etc. And don't even worry about texturing. I happened to procrastinate on my own assignment so here's a drawing of what I mean :D But I think you're already doing well on thinking about it as general geometric shapes; just push it more to the limit!
