Level up your drawing skills

Hi D, thanks for posting your project. This is a good start. I love how you make lighter and darker areas, making texture with just lines, and using thick and thin ones. It seems like you just let go of things and enjoyed yourself. That's great. As far as I can see, there's just one thing that can be improved and could elevate the drawing. It's all evenly spaced. Leave this drawing as it is but next time use an eraser and slightly erase parts that should be in the light. Give some parts of the drawing, the ones that are in the light more breathing space, fewer lines, and add more in the shadows. The third photo shows a good place to stop, look at the work from a distance, and decide if it needs more details. More importantly, where to add these details and where to leave them out. Thanks for providing us with these additional photos as well. Work-in-progress shots are a great way to analyze the process and improve in the future. Have a great day and keep on drawing, I can see you're having fun with it.

No problem, I'd be glad if I could help. :)

Thank you! I will definitely practice with this valuable advice.
