penguin i felt pretty loose with it but the hand i had to shape out a foundation for which still came out a bit rough looking and the lines on the vr girl to but still happy with it

After watching this and the demo I didn't feel like I'd let myself be loose enough in the original exercise so I decided to do another one. I chose this squirrel and focused much more on the gestural lines and overall shape rather than just the contour.

Some more drawings from observation. I'm trying to improve my loose line quality.

Tried to be looser with my lines

I’m still trying to loosen up.

i struggled a ton with this and forgot to photograph my first attempts but i did pull this penguin off later in the week

Some extra work

Here is my exercise!

more practice!

My sketch. I did what I can hopefully I get some Critique. Thanks

I had trouble with proportions, but I made sure to start the sketch using only straight lines then I went over them using CSI lines while also making sure not to use "messy" searching lines. I had more trouble with the robot.

I’ve trouble achieving looseness and accuracy at same time.

The drawings you are reviewing are better than level one! mine are awful. Proportions of people sketches are perfect

Hello, I need critiques or comments from someone about my lines in this drawing.Please let me know if you find some of the lines stiff or awkward to see. Thank you!

Homework + bonus

I tried sketching something of my own. First, I tried sketching the big overall subject, and then I tunneled down into smaller parts in my second sketch. (I drew over the first by erasing some parts and adding just some positions.) I found that during my sketching, I tend to worry about getting the lines right on the first try and not explore (then double down on the existing lines) + with smaller parts, I tend not to explore and draw loosely at all. Resulting in no energy at all in the sketch. I spent around 30 minutes+ during the first sketch and second sketch each. (Seems kind of too long for the first sketch). The result isn't too bad, but I'm not satisfied yet. Any tips for sketching more loosely & faster with more energy?

After watching the demo and critique videos I tried this challenge again, this time more loose and confident with my lines.

I attached a try before and after the demo for the penguin and the arm. I feel like I could have done more exploration especially with the second penguin even though it looks better. I am sorry to say that I couldn't do the arm. I abandoned my first try and did it again after watching the demo but it was terrible. I tried the same technique with a picture of some whales where I think I was doing more searching and more confident lines, maybe because it was easier.

I’ll admit, this assignment was one I probably didn’t approach it the way I should have. I’ll probably figure it out when I get a chance to view all the critiques.
