Copy that.

Well, not quite on par with Marshals challenge and cause for celebration... 😄 and also with proportions and vanishing points off. But as a starting point anyway and I feel quite excited about it. I’m somewhat versed in drawing from observation, but when drawing from imagination the pen has hardly to touch the paper before I tear myself down not getting it right. And oh man how awesome wouldn’t it be, feeling free being able to throw more complex things down and turn it around on the page like in some of the examples. And I’m surprised as to how well the blob approach is working for different types of objects, being able to pin down shape and orientation in steps like that. First general coverage and placement with the blob, then feeling out orientation with the contour lines and perhaps an axis or two and then add in a main box in line with this and adjusting perspective.

One area where I can at least excell in quantity if not quality. These other sketches put mine to shame. But I do try and fill up sketchbooks fast. This book I filled from 10/8-11/14. I try to watch sketching videos and imitate people I admire like Kim Jung Gi, Peter Han, or Karl Kopinski. I like experimenting with different materials and paper. I like iterating on similar themes and doing comfortable drawings to warm up.

Not too much action here in the assignments sections, but hope there are others taking the class though, these assignments feels really useful :) Seems so obvious upon presentation but actually having to do the stuff on paper can be a challenge, especially with the rounded objects. Took an occasional intermission with zbrush also on this one. Using live booleans on primitive shapes, this while staring intently to see and to get a better sense of how they interact when moving them around, and also to check if I had gotten it right. But didn't copy from the screen, tried around first on paper and then went for a drag and stare session and then went back to the exercises.

Literal mind bender :), tried to visualize and draw from imagination from start. But also looked around and found a block of a spongy insulation material to bend and especially twist to get a sense of how the contour lines goes. To take a break and just look and ponder upon at times, then back to the drawing board again.

marching on :), three point felt the wierdest, easy to put the vanishing point to close

Took some humility to draw cylinders for an hour but glad I did it. Very good practice and helps a lot with making the perspective intuitive. I feel like I restricted my notional vanishing points to the scope of the page, and I realize now that if I had expanded the horizon line beyond the page I could have created a greater variety of perspectives.

Starting out here and I can see that third part will require that box practice and a redo. But suggestion about all parts are still welcome (although given the course age and lack of responses below, I'm not raising my hopes up)
