from which course you have learned this?
btw it is amazing!!!!!!
Thank you! : ) I'm not studying character design from a specific course. The prompt for this character is from a book called "Designing Creatures and Characters" though.

please tell how you develop such a good rendering skill?
And which courses you have taken?
I think rendering skill is largely tied to understanding the forms and then applying the light source. To that end I would say I have gotten a TON out of the Figure Drawing Basics course and would definitely suggest it.
I've started the Proko anatomy class too, though I also use a few books for anatomy stuff.
I think one very important thing to understand is perspective and how that applies to the figure (and everything else). That will help define forms in 3D space so you can light them properly. At the moment I don't think there is a perspective class on Proko but I've found the book "Framed Perspective" very helpful.
The other piece of rendering is the actually line quality, which just comes from lots of drawing. I wouldn't stress that too much since it just comes with time naturally.
Hope that helps a bit. Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.
What kind of still like are you looking for? You see, 'still life' is a very broad category, and it includes objects we can find everyday to rarest of objects.
Look under the “shading” section of the figure drawing course. It’s not specifically for still life, but if you understand values and shadows, and can draw basic shape, you can draw anything.
Are there any proko videos for still life drawing and shading?
