First attempt before the demo. I need to take my time in ghosting the line before committing, and just be more patient in general. After watching Stan's demonstration, he has much cleaner lines. Mine are confident, but I think I'm too confident which results in messy linework. I'll spend the next week or so practicing this on different subjects around the house, I'll also attempt those shoe laces again! Can you tell I spent 2 seconds on each lace? hahaha

Wow! I can definitely see the confidence in your lines, your an amazing draftsmen, keep it up

Not too bad, keeping nice clean lines as been the biggest struggle for me with these too, im definitely am going to have to take some time to practice with other subjects as well. Keep up the good work!

This is my third attempt at this, first time with an untextured brush. Everytime I got up to do something else I found something that was off, so I had to force myself to stop eventually to move on lol. This was a lot harder than I was expecting, but I like the way this last one came out.

I can see the 5 values, I just think you've simplified it a lot more, which isn't necessarily a bad thing? I did a similar thing with my first attempt, I combined a lot of the values but after watching Stan, you could see him endlessly searching for small value changes. Your proportions are really nice, however you may have also simplified the shapes. Nice work :)

Took two attempts at this, first time I probably spent 20 mins on the foundation/proportions, which after Stan's demonstration he noted he spent an hour and a half measuring! haha. So second time round I put a lot more time and effort into it, had to erase the left eye, and adjust the jaw line. I surprisingly struggled with placing 5 values and deciding whether something was half tone or shadow or black. Trickier than I thought! Open to criticism :) Thanks

I like it!! The second one looks very good! Time well spent for sure! Now… Only feedback I can give despite my ignorance is in regards to shadow shapes. My opinion is that there are several darker shades that were missed close to the cheek bone. It is also difficult for me to distinguish some darker values. They seem very similar to the lighter ones to my eyes. This is all. Hope this is somehow useful to you!! Best of luck!!!
