Another sketch for the day. Good holidays to everyone
André Machado
Not sure what pack they were referring. I assume it was the holiday sketch pack so I did 2 for the day with a bit of invention.

This course has been so great and made me realise how lacking I was in the most simple aspects of drawing. I can usually distinguish values when it's a black and white photo reference but colors make it also a bit more hard for me. Hope you will make another course on color some day...

I know this assignment was specified to only measure the eyes, mouth, and nose on the subject used… I went a little overboard on this one and decided to do a full render. I realize there are many problems with this piece, but I’ve gotten to the point where I’ve learned enough from this one and need to let it go. Any critique is appreciated. I know he’s got a turkey neck, btw. ;)

Don't be so hard on yourself. Even if the proportions could be polished, you captured the likeness of the subject very well. I also like the cyan blue rim light he has on the nose altough the one on the shadow side should be more discreet. For the mouth, you could add some darker halftones in the interior to showcase more of the roundness of the lips and add a bright highlight to indicate the moisture of the lips. Good job.

Here is the 1st half of the poses. I like how some of them turned out. I struggled a bit with how to make the feet look OK, and I don't think I succeeded. I also should try to get a better line quality for these.

Hello. The most important thing in this exercise is the flow of the rythms and these look like a success for me. For the feet, I usually just use the envelope shape of the whole foot and dont worry about the anatomy for this. You also used very few lines but captured the action of the pose very well. I still struggle with simplifying and add too much unnecessary information. Also usually in this step, you should use confident strokes with very light pressure since the goal is to add structure on top later with more defined lines. It's just an exercise so it's ok to use hard strokes, Just something to keep in mind. I think you did a good job with these.
