As I’ve been working on this Gorilla, the areas that I draw keep smudging into other sections. I am drawing the same points in the same order that you did, with the paper towel, but how do I keep it from smudging, especially once I close my sketchbook and it’s rubbing on the adjacent page? Thank you, and thank you for these amazing videos!

I have been working on the Gorilla drawing for Months! I only have 1-2 hrs each weekend to dedicate to drawing and am starting to find it hard to keep my enthusiasm up. My main problem is that I started drawing on grid 2 from the top and I always need to be aware of this shifts the features on my drawing. Also, as with other comments I can’t always see the grid lines in the photo or video and am doing a bit of guessing.
Overall it will look good but I plan on re-doing all the drawing when I am done the modules I am interested in so yhat makes this my ‘practice sessions’

Thank you so much for creating these courses! I just started and was struggling with some concepts, but you made them clear. Amazing work! Clear and concise.

I was never taught the grid method. It kinda really flusters me. This is going to be a challenge to do.

I don’t have photo software, so what I do is go to library and print image in black and white. I keep the color on my screen and the printout beside me.

I am trying to watch The Secrets to Drawing course. The sound is there but no video. I can only see the title slide. I have tried watching other courses and they are okay. Is there a problem with this course?
