tried a couple of them. didn't focus too much in terms of "properly" measuring out proportions (i.e. using my pencil as a measuring tool), I just started with certain shapes and looked at the relative position of them and different points on the subject. some lines are still a bit messy, but more practice and a sharper utensil should fix that. always open to critiques.

This was a highly difficult assignment for me. I'm brand new to this, having only as much experience with art as I have in this course (so, a day). The boots I simply could not do, I was having extreme difficulty getting things simplified. So I went with the snail, and here it is!
props for working through the difficulty! I'm sure that with consistent effort you'll look back at this assignment (and the others) after finishing the course and be proud that you stuck through it. for what it's worth, I would say try to pay attention to the 2D relationships (up, down, left, right) between different parts of the subject. for instance, the rightmost part of the snail's head (not including its antennas) is more right than the rightmost part of the shell; but in your drawing the head is a little bit on the inside.

in hindsight the curve at the bottom of the shell was a bit more than an S curve, so idk if I should've just simplified it to a c curve or a few straights. and I didn't refine some of the horizontal lines of the platform that the snail was on, but I was mainly concerned with the snail itself.
