Thanks guys for the welcome! Its been a bit hard to produce work while working, I need to somehow work on increasing output. Was able to watch this week's videos and did the assignments (albeit need some work)
From the time I could play the image adjustments, it was hard to pinpoint the right shade of the character's legs.
Overall good work! The main point being to get you comfortable with the different digital tools and to know the different options exist so you can play around with them later as you work through the terms.
Mei was probably the hardest when I first tackled this, at the time my understanding of saturation, hue and luminosity was fairly limited. Now it's clear she is a bit more saturated and there's a bit of hue change (redish..?). It's interesting to see how these are tackled by new people.
Interesting, thanks for the feedback, I'll try to play around with this again tomorrow with less saturation, hue and luminosity. Yeah I tried various combinations, I would be so close yet so far away!
8 days later
Here goes Week 2... one thing I've clearly learned is that I need to work on my time management a little better. But here is some recent work done:
Pen control exercises
Very intresting house, can't say i've seen something like that before. Definitely something you would only see in dreams.
That building on top of the water is so whimsical! I love it!
That house idea is pretty awesome great creativity
Thanks guys for the kind words! I started the dream house assignment looking for industrial factories in Pinterest but was really having trouble finding good reference images, eventually near end of week I saw these front-view houses and the floating carriers and quickly tried to bash them together 
First stab at pen control exercises, I struggled most on the blending exercise and will search up how to do blending better.
Nice excercices, though I don't see the cylinders for the limbs in the overlays over the photos. Those cylinders and other 3D forms are really important, as they will be the bases for anatomy and volmes. I would also recommend to try not to deform the boxes ot match the figure, I see it seems to be trying to match the overall figure, but in the long run the boxes and cylinders are intended to emulate body parts, like the rib cage, pelvis and head, wich don't stretch that much.
At this phase it's better to keep their figure rigid (bending them a bit is perfectly fine), so in later excercices you can more easily put the more fine details like bones, muscles and features more easily.
Thank you for this feedback daceronine! That makes sense, I'll work on keeping the boxes more rigid and uniform with the figure. With the cylinders I thought that was exclusive to Assignment 4 and the weekly guide kept mentioning to do Assignments 1 - 3. But I'll be adding those cylinders now tho as I agree with you how important they can be in these exercises. Being week 4, the assignments seem to be 5 (proportions) and 6 (gestures, 1 min) but next time I work on these listed assignments will do better on the skeletal constructions
