Hi, David Gutmann So, right now the main problem of this drawing is proportion. Eyes are too big and too close to the edge of the face, nose is too small, mouth is too big and retracted, neck i feel is a little too thin. I think that studying proportion is what is going to help you the most in this moment. Familiarize yourself with the concepts of plumb lines, negative shapes, measuring and continuing angles. and practice this concepts until you have a firm grasp on them. If you have problems seeing the shapes, you can try learning the Reilly abstractions. Tracing them over the photo and comparing the shapes you drew with the ones on the photo is a very effective way of correcting your own work. Keep drawing and best regards.

Hi Jacek! Great work so far! In total transparency I haven't watched the entire video course yet but have watched the first phase and then skipped around in the later phases. Flatness: I think that flatness is due to your initial line drawing (lay-in) got washed out by the value phase. It looks like Stephen brings the line drawing up along with the values as he is working so that lay-in remains to help guide the placement of values and keeping the 3d look and head structure in place. I think if you went back to reestablish the construction lines in your drawing and some edges it will bring it back to life and look 3d more. Hair: try to look at the big shapes only at this stage of the drawing. Also the photo reference has her hair in an odd kind of shape anyways so I would design the hair shape the way I want it to look vs being exactly like the photo. There are those two countering strands of hair that look kind of symmetrical to each other and it's killing the flow of the hair. I'd just fill it in to make the hair look thick and full on the back for example. Proportions: Double check the vertical and horizontal alignment of the mouth, eyes and nose before moving forward. Make sure at each stage of a drawing that all the features are still on a similar horizontal tilt. Really good work and I can't wait to see the finished work! Tag me when you post it so I can see!

I think that it is streaming only... Best to check with Proko support.

Hi Andre, try clicking the "Classical Portraiture Techniques and Concepts" tab at the top of the right hand column on this page- that will take you to the main course page in which there is a downloads tab. The images are there.
