Week two done! started experimenting with line weight as I went along with the course.

every day for 3 months straight. I need help knowing when to stop... I get sucked into the zone and the next thing I know its 6 hours later.

Day 1 of my 2 Week Challenge! Let's Go!

Just completed the second week!

First week done!

day one, didn't have time to really polish this one, but at least i tried

Supossed to have a chill week this monday, Will try to make at least one drawing per day Hopefully I come back to post the drawings next sunday

The journey begins. However, I do have a question if anyone knows: should we stop the course and draw for 14 days or do we do it alongside everything else?

Just completed my first week!

Okay so here’s a photo dump of the past 4 projects of the 14 day challenge. Day 5 I did Baby Yoda, focusing on the line work and breaking away from wanting to add shade. I’ve currently been working on character designs which I think helps separate from wanting to add shade instantly. Day 6 I did an observational drawing of a Turtle ornament. Day 7 I did a reference image drawing from Prokos free packs which I set a 10 min timer on and really focused on the contours, CSI curves and tried hard not to do too much construction. Day 8 I did a very quick sketch of a rose, I wanted to do something different every day and I noticed I didn’t do any plant life so that was my reasoning.

Portrait study ?

Day 4 of the 2 week challenge, drew a race car I like the streamline c-curves and s-curves. Struggled with the tyres and will probably go back to these. Different to any other tyres I’ve drawn before they’re kind of square but rounded. All in all I enjoyed the challenge of something different. I think it’s important to draw something different as it stretches your abilities.

Day 3 of the 2 week challenge, I did a simplify to CSI cat, honestly hated simplifying it so much to begin with, now I’m actually applying it to my own construction sketches and seeing a massive benefit proportion wise. Now I’ve actually adopted this method outside of this course and applying to sketches in my personal sketchbooks and work, it’s showing how valuable this simplify to CSI technique can be.

2nd day of drawing 2 week challenge. Love how natural the curves in the praying mantis’ anatomy look. So I decided to do a simplify to CSI using this reference image.

Okay, so after getting a little bent out of shape over shoe laces in the simplify to CSI project. I decided to do probably one of the easiest and quickest sketches of my life. I initially chose the blue whale because of the streamline shapes and slender S-curves involved. Started doodling the little fish attached then realised how much I miss shading :’) this line course hits hard for someone like me, I’m used to drawing portraits so breaking away from shading is seeming like an uphill battle at the moment. I’m sure with persistence and determination I’ll start getting comfortable with it.

1 of 14 (2 weeks challenge)

Day 14 ヾ(*´ ∇ `)ﾉ Wanted to do something more complete on a last day of the challenge. Really happy with it (maybe except the shading hehe) This was so fun, thank you!

Day 14. I drew everything in the last two weeks. From an ugly house to a weird cat. I wanted to end this challenge on a high note, something to remind me of my capabilities. Tomorrow I am continuing the lessons as normal. I wish everyone the best. Have a nice one!

Day 12 Had a couple of days in a row that were rough and I felt like all the daily sketches turned out awful, but today made a page of whales that I really really like, so wanted to share it here Thank you

I tried to simplify as much as possible, doing the initial sketch with straight lines. I am more surprised than pleased by the result (I'm talking about those goofy-ah legs), but the feeling to be able to draw what you want is definitely persistent within me.
