I need some pieces to critique for "How to Draw Everything 2.0"

Jake Parker · 7 Jul 2017, 14:19

Hi everyone!

I've been spending the last couple weeks reworking and recording a huge update to the "How to Draw Everything" class.

This new course is shaping up to be one of the best I've ever taught. It's a comprehensive course on the elements, principles, techniques, and tools of drawing. I'm really pumped for it and how it can help people learn to draw better.

At the end of it I want to do some draw-overs on people's drawings, and I need a few I can put in the course. I'm looking for drawings in particular, not illustrations. I need character drawings or vehicle and environment drawings that need some work.

Something like these would be great:

And of course, by posting it here you grant permission for me to critique your work in a class that will be posted on SVSlearn.com.

Also, I'm wanting to do a live version of this class in September. It would be 3-4 weeks long and have 4 assignments, you would get a recorded critique and draw-over of your 4 assignments, and there would also be 2 online live sessions where the class could ask questions and get live critiques. Something like that, still ironing out the details.

Let me know if there's any interest in that.

Thanks everyone!

Here is an image I am having trouble with. I am having a hard time drawing this pig and cowboy from behind. Maybe this is something you'd be interested in.

@eric-castleman I can see the front of the pig in relation to the whole body is problematic but this overall look is awesome. I really love the lines and shapes! Really cool.

I would be very interested in taking this class. Although my timezone is GMT i would like to learn more and to have my stuff critiqued by you live after following a lot of svs courses ;). If it is not really in the middle of the night haha). What time do you usually have the live sessions?

@ben-migliore make sure to resize your image. Keep it to 72dpi and no larger then 1000px width.

Thanks @Chip-Valecek
Here @Jake-Parker just use any of these

I used Inktober to get back into art and here are some I did before taking any SVS courses (boy am I thankful for them now!). If any of these fit the purpose then, by all means, fire away.

These are a few ive been working on based on billy goats gruff. Would be happy for you to use them if they suit.

Jake Parker · 8 Jul 2017, 19:43

Thanks for the submissions you guys!

@Eric-Castleman What a great drawing. I see a couple things I could work on there. But overall, it's looking good.

@Tyson-Ranes Thanks for the submission. This actually might not have enough wrong with it for me to use.

@Dennis-Spaans I was thinking of doing the live sessions in the afternoon, which would be sometime between 7-10pm GMT.

@Chip-Valecek I'm actually looking for drawings not illustrations for this class, and the illustrations you posted are solid anyway.

As for the drawings you posted, they just need little tweaks here and there. Nothing too structurally unsound in them.

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen That would be great to critique, can you post a scan?

@lmrush could you scan this one?

@Jon-Anderson Thanks for posting these, I'll be using at least one.

@gubhart Thanks for these, I'll see if I can use them.

MOO · 8 Jul 2017, 20:57

@jake-parker I will try to post a scan...I've aded some things to the picture but it is basically the same. Thanks.

lmrush · 9 Jul 2017, 01:15

@jake-parker Yes let me dig it up!

lmrush · 9 Jul 2017, 01:24

Here it is scanned Jake, I hope this is ok!

@jake-parker "I was thinking of doing the live sessions in the afternoon, which would be sometime between 7-10pm GMT."

Cool! I will attend then ! Im very curious about this course and see how I developed since I took most of your and Will's SVS classes :).
