Hi, i'm completely new to art in general and also to forum writing stuff so go easy on me. :smile:

Not a native english speaker so please forgive me if i say something funny.

Looking for some advice and critique how to advance to next stage because i would like to become a professional artist one day.

Somehow i lost the file with combining images assignment, so i have to skip this one because i don't want to redo it again.

Hey Fizzy, welcome to Art School, a pleasure to be sharing this journey with you!

Assignments look more than good enough to familiarise you with the software, well done.

Looking forward to seeing how you do with the first drawing assignments. I think you'll find them fun!

My first attempt at figure drawing... It's harder than i expected. Definitely a lot of room for improvement. Please tell me what i can do better.

Looking really good Fizzy! Think you are getting a good idea of these objects in space. The only real issue I see is the cylinders don't always appear to be at the correct angle, or are rectangles. For example I would suggest drawing an elipse through the cylinders at least 5 elipses at each end, middle and each quarter, something like this will give you a much better understanding of the form of the cylinder. Here is an example of one I did recently.

I would do the chest and pelvis boxes just like you have done on yours, but really focus on those elipses on the cylinders, its a super important skill that will keep coming back! It will be super hard at first, thats normal. Just keep at it! Hopefully that is helpful Really nice job so far keep it up and let me know if you have any questions.
