Here's my selection; didn't work out too well ...

I think these are great. Last one is Bridgman-esque. Don't forget these are notational and just for you. i think they worked out quite well.

I wanted to ask for a feedback. Do I do it right? I'm not sure about it. Also I don't know if I should use a pencil or a black ink pen. According to drawabox we should only use black ink pen but I don't know what's better.

I'm not qualified to answer what might be right or wrong, just a few thoughts as input for you to work with. Regarding the question of ink vs. pencil - I think it heavily depends on what you want to learn, study, achieve... I never studied with drawabox but the reasons I have heard a couple of times for using ink was that as soon as you've put your lines down on paper they can't be erased. you have to make your mistakes and learn from them - knowing you can't wipe them away therefore should act as an instrument to develop a conscious and clear linework. I do this every now and again and it can be a lot of fun. with pencil you have a different and more versatile toolkit; you can use different degrees of pressure, you can work with the tip of the pencil or the broader side of the tip (english is not my first language, I hope it is clear what I mean) - so all in all there are a lot of ways to play around with the weight of your lines ... So finally - and this really should be continued by someone *way better than me* - regarding your drawings I think they lean towards a defintion of the figure by its outlines; the way I understood Michael first lessons here he rather wants us to break away from that and develop an approach where every line we put down in the early stages of a drawing is a representation of one of the essential parts of the human body and as such express the pose in the way those lines "flow" into and out of each other ... that's why often times the joints are indicated by the open space those lines create/define... and I think your drawings suffer a bit in the way that there is not a lot variation in line weight so every line "demands" the same "attention" as the other so they suffer a bit in their "descriptive" nature ... take all this with a grain of salt - it's hard for me to put my thoughts down in english & I lack the competence in drawing and in teaching how to draw

Her the 10 from imagination! Was surprised at the result. It’s way more playful without reference! Great inspirational exercise
