first attempt. any critique please
@bovine_designs
The original is more angled backward with the torso and legs. The belt buckle's angle rly shows this and could help as a reference point in the future. It gives the pose rlly tense energy. You could try drawing a stick figure of the general pose with S curves to have as a structure for your final drawing to build around. This can help immediately show you how correct your perspective is w/o drawing too much yet.

This was real hard, I'm very happy i drew something that people could make out but when i think about the assignment and how the the focus was to achieve confident lines, i think i failed misserably. Its hard to use CSI lines too. here i tried to focus on not using my fingers to draw and tried to use my wrist, elbow and shoulder. any critism would be great

@Ruata Hmar you did a great job of those laces, and you caught the shape and motion of that snail. Sexy lines will happen in time (I am telling myself that too - my hands are still cramped up from pressing too hard :) Keep going!

No miserable failure here! There's only failure in giving up. It looks like you learned a lot from this assignment -- simplifying is deceivingly difficult and you did a great job. It's awesome to have a line quality goal but realistically nobody achieves their goals on the first try. The confident lines will come with consistent practice, so be very nice to yourself through the process, enjoy the time spent, and keep drawing! Good luck :)
