After W. W. Denslow from the wizard of oz illustrations. I think his drawings are so fun and whimsical. Proportions are a bit off I can see but hopefully I’m on the right track with the line weights.

These are great! Nice translation from ink to pencil as well. I was studying W.W. Denslow for this assignment and found his work provides excellent examples of how to combine all three types of line weight, with emphasis on "order of importance" and "depth + form". What pencils did you use to achieve that almost ink-like taper on the lion's mane?

i think I liked the end result of skelly the best even though that one was most intimidating. It was the last one I did so maybe I’ve improved?

Of course I procrastinated until the last day but I wanted a chance to be included in the critique video. Fingers crossed! Portrait attempt after watching the demo, which was awesome, thank you Stan! I feel like I already learned so much but there’s so much more to learn. I struggled with laying down clean values among other things.
I actually think this is very well simplified, and the likeness is there! Like you mentioned, the shading could be cleaner and the transitions between values could be sharper.

I had to reference his drawing a few times when I got stuck and wasn’t sure what I was seeing. Keeping the edges hard kind of forced me to not overthink things but I persevered and overthought it anyways 😂 would love feedback/critique!
I think you did a good job keeping the pear sculptural (with the hard edges.) Your values scaled down to 5 are clear to me. Great job!
