Level 1 demos are done and it's time to move on to level 2! In this lesson, I show you how I would approach the level 2 CSI project.

Lvl 2 CSI lines (I kept the skull simple in the beginning, but added some detail later. Got lazy with the spine though don’t mind this mess).
Bennett Jimenez
Crushed it!

Would love some feedback on this one. I tried to limit the details as much as possible but I couldn’t help but add a bit in the face. I have a feeling the proportions are off on this one but it’s kinda hard for me to tell. I really tried to focus on the confident lines and drawing with my shoulder.

The legs might be a bit long, but I think it's better for them to be too long than too short. Proportions are important but take a backseat on this assignment. The main point is to simplify using curves and straights, which you did a great job with. Keep it up 👍

Did my best to try and keep myself from getting lost in the details with the “After Demo” attempts.

I drew both on a A5 format (kind of Statement format), too small. Therefore, lack of details especially for the captain.

New version after demo Although I was satisfied with my first attempt, I have the feeling that I am getting too lost in the details. So my goal in this exercise was to make the lines as simple as possible. It's amazing what simplifying can do :-)

These turned out lovely! I love the boots--they have so much character. Great job!

This is my skull drawing. A bit scare of the bone, but feel happy that I gave a try

My camel lost his feet! :(
Rachel Dawn Owens
Oh no! You can try this little measuring tip for the next long legged thing you draw- rough in a couple of light lines for basic measurements before you start. This will help contain things to the size of the page. Or, try drawing on a bigger paper! Drawing large is great and people love to see it.

I don’t think the shoe came out great but I’m not seeing why? I understand something is wrong with it but I can’t put my finger on it. I would very much appreciate any critiques, please and thank you.
Melanie Scearce
It sort of looks like the right shoe instead of the left shoe because of the curve of the sole. Could be a touch too wide also. It feels a little more left shoe-like with the curve of the sole pushed over towards the right.

Found the boots to be the hardest of the four. I’ve been using a 4H to really help keep my contour lines super light. Having a hard time hitting the proportions just right. Also challenging to find the right balance between getting stuck in the details vs simplifying and getting the right contours onto the paper. Before demos

my skull...what do you think?
Ariana Peralta
omg yes! I didn't even realized hahaha thank you so much :) <3

It came out awesome! The only thing I noticed is that you didn’t finish the line for the top row of teeth so it looks like there is a big hole in the mouth that doesn’t actually exist.
@michielvhout
I'm really happy with this result! For a change, I focused on staying true to the assignment rather than just drawing to the best of my ability. I like how the lines for the belly and jaw turned out. One area for improvement is sharpening my pencil more often—I should have done that before drawing the rear legs. Any tips are welcome!
Ariana Peralta
I like this thought! that's what I've been doing too, letting go of wanting to get a nice drawing and just enjoy the process...cute camel, he seems so happy
Ariana Peralta
Hey guys! I struggle with straight lines and did not realized my camel is leaning >.< What do you guys think?

My second attempt at camel and skull. I only got part way through the video before the urge to draw came in and I decided to just dive back in and Im glad I did because I feel a lot better than my first attempt. Still lots to improve on but breaking sections up into smaller lines really helped me out.
Melanie Scearce
This is a big improvement! Really nice work @Joe Burris. Keep practicing with long, light strokes. Your lines on the skeleton get a bit hairy in places, although these are much more loose than your first round, so keep up that momentum. You're on the right track!
