Far from the best so I'll need to keep practising more. I have problems with my fingers being stiff so a good exercise to do, hard but fun!

A bit disappointed that I posted my drawings in the comments instead of the assignment tab but it was great to see everyone else's work and learn from the critique.

Hello again to everyone! Finally I can post the second try on the portrait after Stans amusing video demonstration. Not gonna lie Stan made me nearly think that the second eyebrow is the same value as the shadow haha...Anyways, this piece was tough, especially because I felt like I had to do it as perfect as Stan (remember to always work on your mistakes when you notice them). It sure isn't, but the jump i made feels huge! The hair remains my biggest weakness though. It is oh so difficult to do the highlights...after many tries I've finally given up and did them dirty. This isn't all though, I feel like theres still some problems that I can't notice after working on it for such a long time. If you do notice please let me know! I'm not scared of any criticisms, be harsh as you can so that I can work on them next time I draw. Thanks again for the great demo Stan and great effort everybody! Have a good one :)

My 2nd attempt on this - it looks very different! I think I spent about 3 hours on it. It was really tough but I enjoy the video, Stan kept things interesting and informative, I've learnt a lot so it was worth retrying it.

My Pear Thang 2 looks completely different from my cartoony looking first pear!

I wasn't going to try level 2 as it looks very difficult but I just pushed myself in the end. I was going to give up at one point but I managed in the end! I hope more others try as well. :)

I'm not very confident in my drawing skills and it wasn't as easy as it looks but it was fun! I would've thought we were going to draw the apple Stan had in the Draftsmen Podcast but I'll name this drawing "Pear Thang". :)
