Did some more practice off the lesson video and afterwards as well. I tried to implement somebody's suggestion of using dynamic shapes, it was difficult but made for some interesting experiments. I feel like a lot of my drawing from reference is "safe" and feels stiff, so I want to get better at doing more interesting shapes and poses.

Did a few image combinations while watching this to keep up and practice at the same time

It's getting better. I found that choosing simple animals really help the process ! Humans, horses... super hard... weasel and octopus are great ! I'm super happy with the weasel running, suspended in the air cause I feel like I added something, my look, an interpretation instead of only trying to be a heartless camera. The imagination drawings of the weasel are a bit quickly done, I couldn't stay in the place of "doing-my-own-thing" for long. Octopus I stayed longer. I want to learn to stay longer in this place until I'm able to breath normaly and have fun. Some kind of anxiety still takes too much space, I'm sure I'm not the only one 😊🤷‍♂️

Enjoyed following along with this one. Not only have my lines become better, but I've gotten a lot faster at getting ideas on the page. Looking forward to the next lesson.

Drawing from imagination after watching demo. Evil pigeon.

This dude is awesome! I love his crazy proportions. To make the pose feel more balanced, notice to placement of the head to the feet. If the character is standing still, the head is usually balanced somewhere between the feet. I might push the head back in this drawing. That’s all. I hope this makes sense. Your drawings are so good!

Should have picked an animal… I give up.
Rémy Bernard
Doesn't look like you gave up. Looks more like you did the exercise. Good job !

2025/6/14. Good evening everybody. Here's my original character (sketch + refined digital version). During the final digital drawing I changed a lot. The sketch was just to put down on the paper some general ideas. Thanks for any comment or critique. Good night.
