      Great job inking and coming up with the concept. The only critique I have is that there is a small tangent formed between the tail of the helicopter and the hill side.

          I love it! I also took the class and didn't ink over Jake's pdf downloads (which I should have). Instead I inked over one of my old pencil drawings, which I'm about to post. Did you find the class helpful? I sure did!

              really well done.

              Never give up, always push yourself two steps further than you believe you can go.

                    Cool! But I think you could make it even better if you did thicker lines where shadow is.

                    And here is mine.. I thought it would be interesting to see versions other people did 🙂

                      I really like the variations in your line art, which one can see very clearly in the whale. I would work even more with some black shadows, as you did it very nicely with the two flippers. But that is just my taste. Nice work! 🙂

                        The last post was for Jiris work (@Jiří-Kůs). 🙂
                        @Flabiano: I agree with Jiri regarding the line variations. What I particularly like in your version is the variation of black and white areas in the heli. I would suggest to do the same with the whale, as in Jiris version. Nice work! 🙂

                              I like the inking job on this one Flabiano. My eyes are drawn to the top of the chopper being 3D but the bottom portion seems flat. I think you nailed the inking on this piece. Keep up the great work.
