Dear Stan, first off congrats on the family expansion. Second, I want to see more of your student work! How long have you been drawing at that time? I’ve only been drawing for 5 years (always thought I was not artistic), I do see progress, but am not near your student-level 😅
Daniel Lucas Nizari
I’ve got to do admit this was a confronting assignment I was not looking forward to. Drawing difficult things feels like a mental internal struggle of insecurity. But I’m proud. I at least did the bare minimum. side question: some people have the label “Help wanted” , but how can you add that?
Rachel Dawn Owens
It looks like you’re getting it. Keep drawing more like this and it will get easier. The only thing I notice here is minor. The back looks a little too round. I think it would look more dimensional if you flattened the back plane little bit. and to post with the ‘asked for help’ sign, just click the ‘post as help request’ checkbox when you post. It can be buggy at times and not show up. You can also tag me or @Melanie Scearce. We are Proko Community Critiquers. Here to help the students.

My first submission for level 1! Ignore the top left part. Thats gesture practice

Most of the homework I see on here is greyscale, so I get excited when I see color. This is a fun page. The guy in the bottom right stands out the most to me. The black hands makes him look like he’s wearing black gloves.

This is what I really needed! Showing me that artists are human and with hard work I can become great! Happy holidays. Xx

Diminution - 3 - mainly in the cars at the top Convergence - 5 - especially extreme in the car panels Foreshortening - 2 - the hand in the rear mirror, the tire in the lower right Overlap- 4 - the hands a couple of times and the cables. The panels themselves atmospheric - 1 - not much really. Perhaps slight rendering in the top panel

Here the first 3 drawings. I tried to avoid detail but looking at the just released demo, I believe I can go a bit further with detail :).

These are great!

@marshall I have a question. Why is the straight line the most important line? I'm quite confident with the straight line, but the problem for me is that , especially with gesture, i do way more curved lines or ellipses . And sadly I feel less competent in that region XD. Although I was happy to see Peter doing also curved lines. Loved the video, keep up the great work !
Marshall Vandruff
The straight line is what we so often use in perspective, and it's a strict discipline. If you can do it already, great! Within a year you will be working on ellipses like crazy, and you may be surprised at how they are related, not only to straight lines, but to right-angled straight lines.

The airplane pilots als do the perspective course, looking at the sky. Making 2P-grids

Tried to recreate a simplified infinite chessboard! Was fun and I kind of believe the illusion. :) I do believe that shadows are very important to sell this illusion but not required For the small assignment I tried to create a “view from the inside of the room” with the one on the left, but my mind refuses to see this and instead still sees it as a cube!” Do people have a sometimes a “strong preference” and refuse to see a specific illusion?

Hopefully someone can help with deciphering this image for me. Is the green part, part of the abs or pecs? And what about the pink one? It’s the first image of the assignments

They are both actually part of the rib cage. This model has a very wide arch to his ribcage, so you see it more than usual. This arch can be greatly exaggerated on men to make them look more masculine. It’s something that Frazetta did a lot on his figures.
