Off to a good start! That Chris Patt is really something. It's a great result consdiering it's only liquified, even if a real Mario face is alwasy kinda freaky xD.
Nice job on the dream home assignment! The lighting looks great!

these look really good!
Holy shet that's a lot of practice. There is definetly improvement, much more noticeable when you compare the last one in the sheet with the first one.
yoooo these look so cool!!! when zoomed out they remind me of Egyptian hieroglyphics!
Nice, keep at it!
Week 5
I still have issues with 2 point perspective, I need to find a way to study and practice it in a more efficient way.
With the assignment 4, I drew all the poses by imagination without any references, I feel a little progress there, but they can be way way better.
Finally, while copying the artist, I wasn't happy with the results, so I used a grid at the end to keep everything in place, but I'm not sure if that was a good way to study. If anyone has tips on how to study other artists that would be super helpful!
personally i use a grid since it helps keep things in place.. i think its a good way to study because you're still studying where everything goes within each grid which i think is helpful
I personally start copies by copying gesture, then "rebuilding" the character from observation, by using simple geometric shapes (boxes, balls, pyramids) followed by adding detail.
My goal is usually to try to understand how the character works in a "3D" mental space, and as I add the details I keep a close eye in the reference to try to match it and to appreciate the finer details like how clothes wrap, specific features and so on.
I usually end up a bit off in proportions and need to adjust (or just leave it as it is xD), but this way I get a good feeling for the character as a whole and not just how it looks in the art piece.
Still, your work looks really good. We are usually our worst critics, so I'd say keep trying different things and see what you are more comfortable with.

I want to make a note here...
My last post was 20 days ago, but I want to clarify that I wasn't being lazy, on the contrary I was working so so much. The room assignment took me weeks to complete and it doesn't even look that good, every time I opened this file and look at my progress it felt so unmotivating.
I feel like I wasted a lot of time, shouldn't have to take this assignment so seriously. But at least now I know how much I struggle with this type of drawings, it doesn't feel natural to me, maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it was so difficult to me that at some point I thought about quitting, and I hate that feeling. I guess I will keep practicing gesture drawing for a while, which is something that I enjoy a lot, while I watch more tutorial about environment drawings.
Sorry for the venting, I needed to get it out of my system.
To my eye it all look really good, don't beat yourself over that stuff, i'm quite sure most people struggle with that assignment aswell, i know i did... A LOT. The important thing is to keep pushing foward and not burnout. You got this!
