Here is the late homework! Just catching up with all the videos. I am sharing on social media the making of these homeworks to promote the course. You can see the sped up timelapses here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGO0WGmu8CM/?igsh=MWo3YXJ2cXZhejR4Yw==

I would love to have the female and male skull in a dual set. Maybe even include in the future the different nuances between the races's in 5 skulls, like an entire set. Of course, that can take place way down the road, but I would be interested in something like that. Just an idea to throw at you in case it hasn't come to mind yet.

I wanted to share how I am using the app. Very useful to develop that kin eye. Also, the 3D toy plane has been very interesting for understanding lens distortion when it comes to proportions.

Thank you to the Proko team and you, Marshal, for this app. To me, drawing from reality and visual references is the faster (although tedious) way to create that data library inside my head. My prefrontal cortex is not the most evolved part of my brain, so I rely in intuition a lot. This app is great for that! Thank you for going always the extra mile!

I started the blob Approach and is definitely the opposite of what I learned. Really interesting. I will keep practicing later this next week. So I used the toy plane 3d model from this course to study the proportions and how to use the blob approach accordingly.

I am late to submit but I was caught up with other lessons and life. Today I took the time to work on everything at once. So everything is mixed together. I decided on scissors and barely scrapped the surface of this matter. But this is what I got.

Good evening Marshall and dear peers! I wanted to share kind of a vulnerable view, so maybe others can share how to overcome it. I had a lot of resistance with this assignment, as well as the previous one of creating a personal library of authors/masters we admire. I personally get discouraged and side tracked by looking at others work. I did a good amount of copies back at Art Academy, and I realized that the satisfaction of emulating somebody’s trick or style was a very short lived ego satisfaction. I became really good at copying a look, but the essence of interpreting and valuing based on my own tastes and beauty standards, didn’t develop. My reaction was to not look at the work of others trying to steal, but to struggle myself trying to decipher my own values. Even today, when I look at these pieces of art, I feel my heart sinks because I am still far away from reaching those levels. I do enjoy working on assignments that test my thinking/sensibility skills because those align with the idea of growing my own library of visuals. Does anyone can offer a perspective shift to provoke a change of heart? Thank you in advance to all of you for your honest, personal responses.

Interesting Exercise. As you can see I couldn't rotate the paper, but ended up rotating myself around it, 😂. In my case I have more stability pulling at the rhythm of my exhale. Also, doing the airplane landing and launching technique when I pull the pencil when drawing the line helps a lot. I learned that Airplane technique from Wood burning courses, and it works in drawing the same! The thickness and feel of the marking instrument is essential for control. I used two different tools, I found out the thicker one is harder for controlled lines, while the mechanical pencil was a breeze. So, lesson learned, the instrument is vital for the type of work we want to do, duh...I tested my pluck and can say: Thank you for this challenge! PS: I don't have a compass but used different lids for two dimensions. Small and Medium. I will look around for a bigger circle, to try again. Definitely it will take a longer exhale, will have to train those lungs, 😂

Finally, I played around with a shape of my own. Experimenting with the form inside. Shading helps me to clarify the form and play with the design. At the end I cleaned it up with only lines to see if still is readible.

Hello everyone! I tried to start simple with a non-complex shape and make it rotate in different directions. Not as easy as it seems, but fun :) Maybe this is a silly question, but how do we know if the depth side of a shape is correct in terms of lenght?
