added comment inProject - Learning to Sketch from Imagination
Asked for help
After many attempts with different animals I was finally able to produce something simple from imagination. I must admit that this was extremely difficult :D I will spend more time with that assignment after I’ll watch demo. Hopefully it will become easier with practice. I couldn’t upload one reference photo because of wrong format.

Here are my sketches. Had to do all of them twice, because first time I put too much attention to details and wasn't loose enough. These are a bit better, but I think I could still improve a bit, maybe watching demos will make things more clear ;)
These are a great attempt! I think you're spot on with your self critique - your line quality feels a little stiff, especially in the penguin. Watching the critiques I think will be quite helpful since Stan gets into the looseness and what the true goals of the project are.
Another video I would recommend is the one on searching lines.
Keep it up!

Hey guys! I did the snail and the boots, once for the project, once after the demo, and once after the critique. Do let me know what you think! I did have to edit the pictures a bit, especially the ones I took after critique. I tried to stay more loose in that and so I think that led to v light lines. If you guys have any tips on how to take good pictures and how to not smudge your page especially when shading, I'd love to hear!
Hi janoot. Those look pretty good. Your lines are neat and you did good job capturing proportions. About pictures I would guess that it was either not enough light in the room where you were taking them, or you draw with very little pressure, so that the lines are not very visible. I would try to make more confident strokes with pressing the pencil more against the paper. Try maybe before each drawing session to do some warmups and fill couple of pages with just random lines elipses and curves and test how hard you can go, so that it'll be easier when you draw. To avoid smudging I always place empty piece of paper on the area I already shaded, so that my hand is resting on that instead of the drawing. Good job, and keep posting!

Level 1 and 2 before watching demos. I think I put too much detail in the skull's neck. Will try again after watching demos.
Great job ! I love the shoes ! I think you did not simplify enough the skeleton indeed. I love the smiling face of the camel 😂. The body looks a bit round to me but great job on the legs !
Feel free to give your opinion on my submission as well 😃

My attempt of level 2 portrait before seeing demo. I wanted really badly to use more values :) I wasn't sure where to place some planes, also ear and eyes are challenging. I could go little bit darker because the highlights are berely visible. Feel free to leave some critique. Looking forward to see demo.
