Ow wow this is a really creative practice! I really like the ears~ They are almost abstract, but in a realistic way xD If that is even possible. The only thing I'd critique is the actual components of the ear shape, as well as the whites of your eyes. The eyes, I can definitely tell you were trying to take that into consideration, but they are very thin and hard to see without really trying to search for that negative spaced line. As for the ears, the initial shape is perfect, but it's the inside of the ear that needs some work. The most important component (as for shape) on the inside of the ear is the Antihilex ridge, one of the larger shapes inside the ear (you know, the weird one that looks like a curved y) that follows the Helix (or the rim of the outer ear).

It would definitely be benificial if you looked at different photos with different perspectives of the ear and tried indetifying the shapes of the ear and redrawing them by hand (Something I have done in my sketch book before).

I hope you have fun with your art lessons~ I'm rather jealous myself, I haven't been in an art class since third grade. And we all know third grade artclass is paint wars, yelling matches, and crayon scribbles. xD

And thank you! <3 I'll try that out with the ears. I think the noses really suck (i'll have to practice those as well =P =D) :mrgreen:

Ah, noses can be hard, I personaly haven't practiced with them so I didn't want to critique something I didn't have any higher knowledge on. lool. I'd just say study where you can and dont be afraid to learn things that may seem unnessiary at the time (like muscle or bone structure beneath the subject you are trying to draw). Because it may turn out it'll help you. ^^
