added comment inDemo - Simple Animal Portraits - Level 2
Hi there! The animal I worked on is the snow leopard. I tried several variations and attached a picture of the leopard. I would be delighted if you could give me a critique on the shape design.

i love how the heads are asymmetric and arranged like they are a part of a mosaic. maybe try adding brows or winkles around the eyes, mouth and play with proportions more :)
your designs are fricking awesome. although i would suggest you try sketching more loosely and with more visible lines because some of the cool sketches were barely visible.

Went all in on the circle, square, triangle idea. It's alot of fun to have completely different characters out of the same idea.

Learning how to be free and explore more but these shape lessons are fun and looking to keep building up the skillset of manipulating shapes. Stan makes it fun!
Any feedback is welcome
your drawings are good. while drawing by myself and watching stan, i noticed that 3 things contribute to the character and emotion of the drawing are 1) changing up the proportions, 2) playing around with the width of shapes (squishing and elongating), and 3) adding winkles and brows around the eyes and adding some sort of mouth. when i included these things my drawings were way more expressive. i hope this is helpful

Any tips on how move my arm around when making small to tiny circles?
If you struggle with circles, try drawing a circle with a bottom of a cup and then trace freehand over that, and later on try freehand. It's the same principle with drawing a straight line with ruler first and then tracing over it by hand.

In this one, the reference image had pretty even lighting so I decided to use hierarchy of importance instead. I also tried to incorporate depth by considering whether each plant was in focus or not. Overall I think it looks nice, but I think the pitcher with the thickest lines could do with a bit more variation in the line thickness.
I think that an even outline of the closest subjects would provide a sence of balance. And maybe the farthest plant should be even more lighter. Also I think you already have a good variety of line thinckness.

I'm unhappy with what I've done with my line weight here but I'm not sure what I should do. Please share how you would have solved this problem!
background on ref: My dad's gettin old and he started feeding the squirrels. This guy appeared on my bedroom window the other day looking for a handout. Needless to say, I FEAR FOR MY LIFE.
I would bold out the hell out of the paw and foot and make the body even more light and the right arm (the one in the back) barely visible. Also the eye is grabbing too much attention, maybe you should leave it uncolored. I think you did a solid job regarding how tricky the subject is. It would be an easy-peasy if you tried e.g. light and shadow method but you chose the more fun option :)
Ps. if you feed the fella he would strike a good pose

The right picture is the level 1 and the one on the left is level 2.
I found it really challenging. i'm not farmiliar with lighting and where to place shadows but i hope you like it.
would love a critique on it :D
If the left one is level 2, it lacks a clearer contrast between lights and shadows. It took me a few looks to realize that its indeed level 2. I assume that you choose that the light source is on the left. Only thing that I would add is darker or thinker lines for the shadow. Other than that you've met the exercise requirenments :)
