Hey there! Nice work so far! Try to use boxes to define the position of the form in space. It'll make your life so much easier.

The tail looks way more foreshortened in the reference, try drawing the ellipse inside the tail and construct it around the arch

Hey rajeev, This is really cool, scorpions are awesome. You did a nice job on this, and your proportions look good. I think what you could do to improve your drawing. I did a draw over to show you how you can start your drawings with a structure first. This will help you work out your perspective and make it look solid. Keep drawing :)

Hi @rajeev Tripathee, if you want to really nail down the structure of your pieces, then it's probably best to get a solid lay in with simple shapes first. Try simplifying the parts of the body into cylinders in perspective, and try to nail in those simple shapes first. Then, use the contour lines of your simple lay in to inform where you place the details in your finished drawing, which will make your image feel more solid overall. I may have just accidentally re-iterated what Steve had already said previously...but the point still stands haha. This is the process you should take with all of your images if you want them to feel really solid and grounded. Hope this helps!

This is fantastic! Awesome work. You've added 3D forms to the tail which give a stronger sense of the form. If you do more insects, it might be worth incorporating more of those forms into the thorax and head and legs. Especially if you can add cross-contour lines in those shapes! It's okay to lose details!

Main thing is just to practice wrapping contours around the forms. Peter Han (dynamic sketching) is a good person to look at
