Good job Kzip!

I won't lie, it was kind of a difficult exercise for me. I'm not quite sure I got everything… But I'll give it another go!
Good job Nassim and I love the line quality! From what I know, you understood that what's over the eye level is above so you're looking up. And what's below, you're looking down. The next time you give it a go, make it pancake paradise! No matter where you look there are pancakes 😋🥞

Another pretty fun project :)
I think the project difficulty is progressing nicely where there are parts in all the drawings where I can feel myself struggling but then other parts of the drawing that I feel confident in. Oddly the drawing which was most cartoonish, the robot singer thing, was the one I felt by far the least comfortable with. The penguin felt the most comfortable and was probably the point I was getting towards feeling like the lines were somewhat loose and searching.
My final guess before looking at Stan's is that there are probably still way to detail focused. I could kind of see from the thumbnail what I think he was expecting which looks like much mofocused on the big arcs and shapes. But I think at the moment adding some of the smaller details helped me under stand the larger shapes better.
Well done with the drawings! And especially a very good observation with the shapes.

Level 2 forms. I find it hard to separate the foreground and the background with proper spacing of the CC-lines. Would appreciate feedback on how to do that better and, if possible, examples!

Before demo...
Happy with the likeness but was too precious with details: should have simplified to focus on value.
All 28, plus 5 more where I changed the form of the bodies. I intended to change the body shape of all 28 but it wasn't very clear in my head if I was doing it right especially when I compared to the examples in the first video.

Is this course for absolute beginners or should I start with another course? Thank you.
Well depends and what your goals are! If you are an Absolute Beginner than I recommend taking the beginning drawing course by Stanley Prokopenko.

I know, I am too late. I wanted to upload anyways. I did the Proko Skull in Ortho. I got it as a present for christmas :)

if I did anything wrong I would appreciate any feedback! I feel as I understood the assignment, The front view (X, Y), side view (Z, Y) and top and bottom view (Z, X).
The camera is longer but I end up making the X- axis more small. In the second attempt I tried to have more of better proportions but ended up making similar mistakes.
I purposely simplified my camera so it can be easier to draw from memory, so I don’t have to deal with the small details. I sketched a few 3 quarter view away from home to integrate the image in my mind ✍️

It looks like you got a lot out of this assignment. Keeping it blocky was a great idea. Carving out the cylinder for the lens would make it look more like a camera.
That might be the next level if you wanted to draw more cameras, practice the ellipses around the lens.
Great stuff, though. Thanks for sharing!

Attempted captain skully twice. First attempt was in blue. I realized I missed the point on this one after watching the demo and critique. I think I was so lost on how to start this one that the hairy lines were an inevitability. Second attempt was in pencil, I really tried to do the lines with single, confident and clean pulls. I did use some 'hairy' searching lines in place of ghosting to figure out where I wanted to place the line and then executed it and erased the hairs lol. I think it turned out much better. Would love some feedback 😁 thanks in advance!
Well done! and always make sure to compare angles throughout the picture, this will make sure the proportions are correct, the same thing you did on the 2nd attempt. And don't grip the pencil too hard, especially the tip of the pencil. The way you hold the pencil will change the way you draw.
