Here is my attempt after watching the demo. I used multiple pencils this time and tried to make the shapes more simple than last time. I did forget to shade according to the planes so my pencil strokes are a little bit messy. Now that I am watching the drawing from a screen I notice that I could have given the shirt a light value and that the shading is a bit messy. Feedback is always welcome!

Now that you’ve all had some time to try the first project on your own, you can watch how I do it and figure out what areas you are exceeding and struggling with.
Here is my step-by-step demo on how to properly execute the first project for level 2 students.
My first Attempt on the Project - Proportions still a bit wobbly but I think it helped me a lot!
I drew two different pears for this exercise because the first picture I attempted was too dark for me to really see what was going on. Watching the tutorial after the first drawing was really helpful because I realized that my process needed Improvement. I over complicated the process. It really helped me to shade the dark when Value First and then the light when value first and go from there. I can see that drawing a third would be even more beneficial than just doing two but I think I'll move on. glad I worked up the courage to post these. I didn't want to.
I went into this not really knowing what our limit for detail was so I kinda messed up in a few parts, top two were before the demo and bottom one was following the demo
After demo, the proportions are still off, but I think my shading was more in the spirit of the assignment
Drawn before watching demo. Was a challenge because I only had an HB pencil. Some of the light half tone areas show up as highlights since I resorted to erasing those areas. (I will be getting a wider range of pencils in the future.)
The right eye is off because it was hard for me to see in the photo.
This is my drawing after watching demo. This is a self portrait drawing. I only had about 1 to 2 hours before going to work. It took me three days to complete. I worked on shading how I seen in demo
Drawing before watching demo. I realized I missed some of the shading on right side
Well here is my second attempt. Tried to focus more on getting the proportions right.

NICE! This is a huge step in the right direction, excellent progress. Take a look a the Demo/Critique for this one, you'll pick up some cues. Keep it up!
Attempt before demo. Struggled a lot with this one, especially the eye area… need to watch the demo
Wow, this took me a long time, but I’m proud of this one, the whole assignment probably took me 2 and a half hours because i kept finding mistakes and fixing them.
Instead of doing it a second time, i decided to try another image. I struggled a lot with the jaw distinction and the light on it. was very difficult to define form when its blinded in light because it loses detail. I kept this timed to 35 min, same as previous. Tried to get the values right without color picking.
