added comment inDemo - Simplify Portrait from Observation
Used 4 pencils for this one. Couldn’t find my kneaded eraser, so with hand-smudge all over it was hard to get that crisp paper-white highlight value at the end. Tried to really mass the darks. Didn’t capture the really angular quality to his face.

Only used one pencil, but after watching the demo I realize I could have used a range. Definitely think the lights all need to be lighter. Got lazy with shading large areas, but I know that is a skill that takes patience to practice

Hello ! On the right my first attempt (digital) and on the left my attempt on paper following the video! It's easier to get the values right digitally I think, but I have a lot to learn on how to use procreate. I would love to get some feedbacks! Have a nice day!
Especially in the digital one I really like how you kept the whole (our) right side of the face in a big shadow shape. Looks good!

Trying this out as a novice was crazy hard! Lots of hours of impatience, trial and error until I forced myself to let it go and finish. But hey, isn’t that what loving the process of drawing is all about (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)? Best of luck to the rest of my classmates.
I like it! I think you got the likeness/shapes pretty accurate. Maybe reserve some of the lightest value for a few key spots. Ie the eye on our right is pretty dark in the photo.
I like those graphic angular shapes! Well-designed. I like looking at it. Very visually interesting 🤤
I think you did a nice job separating dark from light. At a squint it’s super clear what large shape is dark and which is light 👍🏽
