    Hi there,

     

    This is a good drawing! Before I give critique, I would say that I’m not an expert, but an amateur so my critiques are mostly my reactions rather than being steeped in knowledge.

     

    I like that you used a lot of hatching and crosshatching. I think it looks good. I can also see you used straight lines mostly and that really helps with accuracy.

     

    1 thing  to think about:

    The mouth and lips stand out from the rest of drawing. I think this is because the lips have outlines. It might help to soften those outlines or even replace them with a more smooth transition.

    Again great job! Keep it up.

    Hi Daylam,

     

    I use the plates from the book and I will photocopy them at 150% on bigger paper. The book is actually not very large and if you’re going to do some of the more complex plates, it can very difficult to get all the details in when the image in the book is small. So making them bigger on a photocopier really helps.

     

    I hope that is helpful, I am not an instructor so maybe someone else can chime in.

     

    -Tim
