This one Is going to be messy and full of errors because I wanted to try on my own first and do some problem solving before watching the critique video. I struggle with completing the ellipse and tilting it correctly vs the viewer still but I think I’m beginning to get a feel for it, and visualising it as a slice is helpful. I’ve tried some more finished ones too to see how it feels putting the basic feature planes on top, as well as a fully finished one. The alien girl with the curved face seen from below was a flop but the side profile did alright (an easier angle, but still).

Excellent work, these all look great!

finished the first project. open to critique...
Mariah Mortensen
Used the first twenty of the reference image all in order. Haven't done this kind of practice in a while. Right now I have ton's of time to burn so I hope I can get a ton of hours practicing art.
Michael Hampton

Not sure why it's been like a million years. Anyways I struggled with the last few, the angles were really subtle ( Haven't watched the critique video yet )

Down Facing with pinch in front messes me up. But hey, practice makes progress.

Did these throughout the week while slowly watching the critique video. I tried to use a variety of reference I could find on Pinterest. The last 2 sets are after I finished the video. Feel like I got a lot better but need to still work more on hard poses and wrapping lines.
Josh Fiddler
These are great!

I got better the more I practiced. I could still use some work, and I think my line quality would be better if I did this traditionally rather than digitally.

You will learn more from traditional drawing. Keep it up!

hello, here are some sketches. I kinda have my own way of drawing necks, so I combined what was taught with my own method.
Rachel Dawn Owens

I used to overcomplicate things with the Loomis method, but these steps have been helping a lot. Still got a long way to go

i'm struggling with the sphere part. the cranial cavity just doesn't look very spherical to me-- it looks more flattened on the sides to me-- and then i struggle with the rest of the head. i think i need to practice this more in order to fix the proportions
