Kubits - Art School Journey

[dogyman2000]

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum thing so if I'm doing something wrong please tell me.
I was thinking for a while if I even want to make this forum thing, but then thought maybe this will motivate me to keep going and don't throw everything after 2 months or so.

Any ways, I am Kubits, 24 years old guy from Latvia, I have been drawing almost for my whole life, but thought about art serious when I was in class 9 or something (about 17 years old) and then when I went for bachelor in computer engineering I almost didn't draw for 4 years and now, when that all is behind I finally can draw again without worrying that much. I never had any structured learning and learned everything I know mostly from Youtube.

I'm using CLIP STUDIO PAINT and Huion kamvas pro 16 4k

Critique is most welcome!

Some of my old pieces:

Week 1:

I completed all the assignments, I think, I did a ok job, could be better, but it is what it is.

First few days pen control was kinda rough for me, it's much harder for me to properly control pen on a tablet screen than on paper (like for all of us i suppose).

The Image Adjustment one was a discovery, I have never used this tools before and I had a lot of fun with them. I've always had a problem picking colors for my drawings and they always felt pale and unalive for me, and now I feel more confident coloring my sketches because at the end I can always correct them. Cannot believe this is just week 1 and I'm already learning something this cool. Can't wait for what awaits me in the future assignments.

Week 2:

I completed most of the assignments, I tried some of the assignments with image editing, but most of them I haven't done because I wanted to learn and practice more drawing not image editing.

This is my last pen control attempt, feel like I can draw lines more straight than before and pressure control is a bit better, but nothing much changed.

Figure drawing assignments 1-3, I did 10 figures a day and here are some of them, I think, I did an ok job with this assignment.

Here is the assignment with apples.

And here is probably worst of attempts at making the alien have the girls features. I'm using Clip Studio Paint and I used only liquify tool for this, which is also the tool I never use when I'm drawing, so I have little experience working with it.

Here is one of sketches I did this week in my sketchbook.
