2nd attempt of the level 1 pear project after watching the demo.

In my first try(the one I wrote comments next to, after watching the demo) I had trouble with proportions and I was trying to finish it to fast and didn't observe the shapes carefully. I think in my second try I improved a bit, just by going more slowly and trying to enjoy the process. Please give me any helpful feedback you can find !

I watched the video several times. And here is my result. There are several points that I do not understand. First. As an engineer, I do not understand how to correctly take measurements from an object, it seems to me that the width of the pear does not match very much. The second point, I do not quite correctly how to shade the pear, but we will go through this at the end of the course and the third point. My big minus is that I cannot draw a normal difference between shadows. they do not correspond to the previously drawn values, which are at the top of the drawing

here is my trial for dear pear 1 :) look forward to receiving feedback <3

Great demo! Here's my second attempt on pear 1 I'll be happy to get some feedback:)

the more rounded one is before the demo, the blockier one is after. I’m using a n2 pencil and having trouble with the values, didn’t turn out well but I understand the exercise and the process. I been meaning to learn for a while now, I’m really exited and looking forward to where this is going to take me!!

Lo hice en procreate, me gustó el ejercicio lo seguiré haciendo con diferentes frutas

Looking for feedback.

Pear 1: I think Im having problems with my values. I'd like to have some feedback with the values, also I'm using 2H, HB and 2B pencils

Pear 2, this time after having watched the video

These are my second and third drawings after the demo. It took a long time to adjust the proportions, but it was definitely worth it for the result. What a great way to practice patience!

Really struggled with overall using traditional materials, and being able to see 5 values was very difficult, at most i saw 4 and made up where i thought 5 (darkest) would be based on the light source. this exercise did help a lot to be able to understand where contour lines should be placed on a 3D form, which is something i was struggling with for awhile if i were to retry this, I'd squint or blur my eyes at the reference to simplify the shadows more easily

Okay after watching the demo, I redid my pear #2.... I do think it's improved. And it gave me the opportunity to correct where my previous lines were going every which-way.

ok would be able to sit and draw pears until i fall a sleep but this will be enough for now, feel i'm understanding but not really sadesfie with my capabilities, will move on for now

Seems like mine got worse, after the demo. I dont know which pencile I should use on procreate to make the shadows :/

I tried using a picture of my own, so I took a picture of a tangerine with a light focusing on the top left. I am not happy with the end result, but I am unsure on where to improve. My biggest issue was with different colors and different values, between the tangerine and the leafs. I ended up using the same values for adjacent parts with different colors and it confuses me.
