I'm definitely a beginner, so giving myself 10 minutes to sketch. The thought of drawning some of these things, genuinely scares me!

Plan

Day 1 20/11/20

Need to work on planning perspective better, but otherwise happy with this as a first attempt.

Day 2 21/11/20

Fairly happy with this, though need more practice to get more done in the time.

Day 3 22/11/20

Today I learned...Blending coloured pencil is hard.

Day 4 23/11/20

Really pleased with this. I definitely like markers. Could be neater, but I wanted to get as much done as possible. Thought it would be fun to incorporate the tipp-ex itself in to the one of the right, though you probably can't really see it in the photo.

Day 5 24/11/20

Quite pleased with this. It was hard because of the pyrography - the indents, which would normally be darker are much lighter than the surface so showing depth is difficult.

Day 6 25/11/20

Tried some new things today. Mainly trying not to draw the object itself but just use shading (left) or draw the negative space (right). Kept forgetting that was what I was doing though and started drawing in the lines. Very informative though :)

Day 7 - 26/11/20

I mean, I don't hate it, but don't really love it either. Found using the fountain pen really difficult because it kept snagging on the paper or the ink wouldn't come out - maybe because I was trying to use it like a pencil?

Day 8 - 27/11/20

I tried drawing more with less detail, but I don't really like the results. I really enjoy drawing the details so I reverted a bit in the last one before I caught myself :)

Day 9 28/11/20

Coloured pencil definitely isn't my favourite medium, I think I'm getting better with them though. Must remember to check my lines before finishing. Didn't notice the tip of the last one was squint until I hung it up.

Day 10 29/11/20

Really tried to focus on getting perspectives and form correct today. Quite pleased with the results.

Day 11 30/11/20

Did this one is a hurry. Was very busy this day, and didn't have a chance to even upload it, so I'm quite pleased with the results.

Day 12 01/12/20

I thought this one was going to be really easy. It looks like a simple shape. However, it's actually slightly warped (whether by design, or the fact it's been sitting on my desk for months) so the results look really weird. I think with more shading it would look like the actual object, and not like I've just messed up the lines.

Day 13 02/12/20

I was supposed to use coloured pencil for this, but I've found I really don't like them, so switched to pen instead.

Day 14 03/12/20

And I'm finished! This was a toughie - so much foreshortening and the hammer itself has so many different angles in it for such a simple object. Pleased with the results though.

I haven't added notes yet, I want to wait a few days before so I can look at the overall journey and my progress.
