Hi everyone! These drawings are for this lesson's assignment and after finding some time i was able to complete it. I've found the assignment quite easy to be honest and i didn't struggle that much while i was doing it , maybe the only thing worth pointing out is the rear delt and how it interacts with its tendon since i think i got it wrong on my drawings. Anyway, i would really like any kind of critique/advice.

Hi everyone! These are my drawings for the hand bones' assignment which really challenged my perspective in many occasions but overall it was very fun. Probably the worst of these five is the fifth one so these days i'll send another version of it down in the replies. Anyway, i'd really appreciate any kind of critique/advice.

Hi everyone ! These are my drawings for this lesson's assignment . It took far too long to complete because i couldn't understand well the form of the radius, especially the S curve, when doing both forearm motions, now i think i've figured it out but the form still isn't the best. Anyway , i would really appreciate any kind of critique/advice.

Hi everyone! These drawings are for this lesson's assignment. I couldn't find all the reference that i drew unfortunately but at least i have these two. I guess i have made some prospective errors on the fifth drawing and i also had some problems with two muscles in particular which are the ones between the clavicle section of the sternocleidomastoid and the trapezius(i don't know their names). Anyway, i would greatly appreciate any kind of critique/advice.

Hi everyone ! These are my drawings for this lesson's assignment. I struggled a lot while drawing the poses since i feel that the romboid is still kind of unknown to me when drawing from a reference and that sums up most of my assignment i guess, the hardest poses to draw were the fourth and fifth one , i guess my gesture is a bit off in these or it's stiff overall. Also, the third one feels weird to me and i don't know why to be honest. Anyway, i would really like any kind of advice/critique.

Hi everyone! These are my drawings for this lesson's assignment. Personally i found the front pose extremely hard for some reason, i didn't know how to approach the insertion properly . Also , the "pushing" pose was really tricky to draw because of the sudden twist in the upperback area. Anyway, i would really appreciate any kind of critique/advice.
Hi :)
A couple of points on the pushing pose:
1) You are using rhythm lines and gesture to communicate the movement of the legs and arms. That is good :)
2) The bulbous forms of the erector spinae are a little off-center from the spine curve.
3) In general, your drawings feel quite sketchy. I notice you use cross-contours, which is good, but I think you should take a little more time to clarify the 3-dimensional forms that the anatomy takes in each pose of your drawings. You don't necessarily have to use shading (although quick shading can help a lot)--you can use cross-contours as you have been doing.
To quote Proko,
"Remember, a “quicksketch” doesn’t mean it has to be a simple gesture or contour drawing. You can show 3d forms in a quicksketch like we did in the mannequinization lesson. And a quicksketch doesn't limit you to 3 minutes. You can spend 10-20 minutes on a quicksketch if you need to. 20 minutes is quick compared to how long we’d spend on a long drawing. The objective isn’t to draw quickly. It’s to show a clear representation of the forms of the body and motion of the pose, while not wasting time on details."
I hope these help you. If there is anything that needs clarification, please let me know.
Have a good day :D

Hi everyone! These drawings are for this lesson's assignment and personally i didn't find it that hard even though i didn't use any kind of reference. The only thing i would say is that i scribbled a bit too much when i draw from imagination so i should be more careful next time .Anyway , i would really appreciate any kind of advice/critique.

Hi everyone! These are my drawings for this lesson's assignment .Personally i struggled a lot with proportions especially when drawing the abs so maybe i'll practice them until i feel confident while continuing the course. Other than that, i also struggled with insertions but i got them figured out while making the skelly draw-overs. Anyway , i would really appreciate any kind of advice /critique.
I like them! Remember that the fiber bundles of the obliques are 8 in total, and they are inserted in a saw shape from the fifth to the twelfth rib, descending parallel with an inclination of 45 degrees and then widening as they are inserted into the semilunar line of ABS. . Some of the oblique fiber bundles you drew look too straight (they actually curve to the shape of the ribcage), too wide, or the wrong amount.

Hey Paylo,
This is a pretty nice drawing, it captures the likeness fairly well. The values are not so accurate, and you nailed it by saying your half tones are too dark and your reflected light is too light. Let me add to that a little:
First of all, 7 values is too many, I see maybe 4 or 5.
If you squint at the reference, you will see dark and light, that's it.
You should start by picking a dark value (not black) and a light value.
Then render your halftones from there.
Also, and this is critical, always compare your values with each other for them to be accurate.
I did a quick paint over to show you what I mean, I hope it helps :)
So in a 5 value study i should incorporate both terminator and reflected lights in one value, thank you for the critique!

Portrait value study1yr
Hi everyone! Recently i've started painting digitally for fun but i never practiced my values so here it is, a 7 value study . First of all, i've noticed half way through the drawing that the half tone value was a bit too dark and maybe the reflected light value was too light . Other than that, i would love any advice on drawing the hair since i'm still not able to render the values properly there. Anyway, i would really appreciate any kind of critique.
