Not really sure if I did well or not, I feel like I'm not quite sure what to do. I tried to look for the 'flow' and exaggerate it, but I feel like sometimes I've stretched the forms too much so that the original gesture is not longer there. Any pointers are very welcome.

Tried to improve it a bit. Came to the realization that not everything needs to conform to the flow of the body. The feet offer stability, and you need to exaggerate that as well. The same goes for the face, it changes angle relatively quick, changing the direction of motion.

Started off strong with the rough sketch, then it seemed like something's off... And completely blew it coloring in the hair. I guess there's a reason Proko says not to shade yet...
Did another one. Really struggling to get a likeness. I feel like the eyes and the mouth are the most important for that, and incidentally they are the things I struggle with most.

Really tough!! Struggled especially on measuring horizontally, so I did most of that by eyeballing. And man, those lips were hard and so important on conveying this guy's emotion/attitude.
Sadly don't have photoshop so I can't make an overlay, but I think I did the following wrong:
- the right eye is not open enough
- the face is slightly too long
- the beard's 'rhythm' is going to the right on my drawing, as opposed to the left on the reference.

These look awesome! You kept your animals simple yet characteristic. The page with the rabbit and bird are my favorite.
You could apply the same logic to the long hair of the smaller dog. Keep the lines long and simple. You can use the hair to frame the face.
Hair isn’t a solid form, its got more flow to it, but it can still be simplified to simple shapes.
i was scared too, but then i jumped into it at the count of 3. please don't worry . Hope you' ll give it a try :)

Don't be scared! It's a great challenge. You have a wonderful start here, maybe you can come back to it and give it a try later :)

First try, pear #2! Man, I struggled a lot to get the proportions right, and they're a bit off. Plus I might need a bigger piece of paper next time.
