This is good work đ Indeed, itâs not quite what was asked for in point 1. You should focus more on emphasizing the external form of the overall character, which affects its âappearance.â Regarding the angles, itâs well understood and rendered. As for the two rabbits, taking the shadows into account, itâs not exactly correct. Here, the small indentations are emphasized, which could indeed be in shadow. But you should primarily choose a direction for the light and emphasize the features on the shadowed side of the different elements. Itâs well done, and the principle of line values is certainly well understood đ
After looking at the corrected version, I realized that I hadnât understood question number 1. I focused more on the character than on the rest (cape, staff, etc.).
For correction purposes, here is the silhouette with bolder lines...medium boldness:-(
I didnât dare use even bolder lines. But...thatâs what Iâm going to do...
All the best.
I have completed the outline of the silhouette in red, including its âscepter,â considering that the latter is not part of the silhouette. Am I correct?
It seems you understand the concept of the silhouette. But we can consider the stick to be part of the character, so itâs better to take it into account when defining the silhouette. To remember this, imagine that if we were to create a shadow of the character (a shadow creates a silhouette), the shadow of the stick would also be there!
Suggestions: lower features and angles. Itâs up to you to decide!
This exercise is fascinating. Since the time I was chasing shadows and light, the path has become clearer... thank you for that.
This looks great for all three rabbits :) I understand what youâve done with the angled one, but it would look even better if the thickened ends gradually tapered off to join the thinnest part; this would avoid a sharp break between the different line thicknesses. In any case, itâs excellent work :)
Hello, here is my work on line values. đ
I processed one example by emphasizing the outline, one by emphasizing the angles, and one by emphasizing the shadow areas.
I have a small question: I work with a 5mm criterion and a light table, and when I start drawing, I canât tell if Iâve made a line or not when itâs only slightly emphasized. Would it be better to use sheets with a higher GSM or a thicker criterion?
It seems you've understood everything well, good job! Perhaps you could just emphasize a few more angles in the section about angles, since all the intersecting lines form angles. From an aesthetic point of view, you can see that some of the thicker lines are made up of several lines placed next to each other, and this can slightly change direction, which can sometimes create a "hairy" effect. For a more harmonious effect, when using a pencil or fine pen, it is best to go over them again, gradually widening them, and being careful not to change direction compared to the base line. But that comes with practice :) Regarding the question you asked, I don't think using a different paper weight would be helpful. However, why not use a thicker tool, or widen the lines gradually as I just mentioned? ^^
Hello,
I tried the rabbit image with the shadows again, using the corrections you provided. I posted it as a reply to my first post, as you suggested, so you wouldnât miss it, but that was 13 days ago. Would it be possible to get some feedback, as it would really be helpful to me!!! đđ
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Lily-rose!!! đ
Oops, I missed the answer anyway, sorry! Itâs good that you sent a reminder message; thatâs the right thing to do when thereâs an oversight. It ensures that the correction is visible in the most recent messages while still keeping it with the original post. Iâve corrected it there. Sorry again for the delay!

Here are my drawings of rabbits with different line weights... what do you think?
Thank you :)
Voici mes dessins de lapins avec différentes valeurs de traits . . . qu'en pensez-vous ?
Merci :)

C'est du bon travail đ Effectivement ce n'est pas ce qui est demandĂ© au 1, il faut plutĂŽt accentuer la forme extĂ©rieure du personnage total, ce qui touche "l'air". Pour ce qui est des angles c'est bien compris et rendu. Pour ce qui est des 2 lapins prenant en compte les ombres ce n'est pas exactement ça. LĂ les petits creux sont accentuĂ©s, ça peut effectivement ĂȘtre Ă l'ombre. Mais il faudrait surtout choisir une direction de lumiĂšre et accentuer les traits du cĂŽtĂ© de l'ombre sur les diffĂ©rents Ă©lĂ©ments. C'est soignĂ© et le principe des valeurs de traits est bien compris en tous cas đ

Have a good day.
J'ai remarqué aprÚs avoir regardé la correction que je n'avais pas compris le n°1. J'ai plus accentuer le personnage que le reste (cape, baton...)
Bonne journée

ça semble bien compris pour la silhouette ! Mais on peut considérer que le bùton fait partie du personnage donc c'est mieux de le prendre en compte dans la silhouette ^^ Pour s'en rappeler il faut s'imaginer que si on faisait une ombre portée du personnage (une ombre portée ça forme une silhouette), il y aurait bien l'ombre du bùton aussi !

ça marche bien tout ça pour les 3 lapins :) Juste pour celui des angles c'est compris mais ça rendrait encore mieux si les extrémités des épaississements se désépaississaient plus progressivement pour rejoindre le moins épais, ça éviterait une coupure nette entre les différentes valeurs de trait. En tous cas c'est du beau travail :)

J'ai traité un cas en accentuant le contour, un en accentuant les angles et un en accentuant les zones d'ombres
Petite question : Je travaille au critérium 5mm avec une table lumineuse, et lorsque je commence à dessiner je ne peux pas distinguer si j'ai fait un trait ou non quand celui ci est peu accentué. Vaut-il mieux prendre des feuilles d'un plus haut grammage ou un critérium plus épais ?

Désolée pour l'attente !
Tout semble bien compris, bravo ! Il manque peut ĂȘtre juste quelques angles Ă accentuer sur celui des angles, vu que tous les croisements de traits forment des angles. D'un point de vue esthĂ©tique, on voit que certains Ă©paississements sont plusieurs traits les uns Ă cĂŽtĂ© des autres et ça peut lĂ©gĂšrement changer de direction ce qui peut parfois faire un effet "poils". Pour un effet plus harmonieux quand on a un crayon ou stylo fin il vaut mieux bien repasser dessus en Ă©largissant progressivement, en faisant attention Ă ne pas changer de direction par rapport au trait de base. Enfin ça vient avec l'entraĂźnement :) Concernant la question posĂ©e, je ne pense pas que prendre un grammage diffĂ©rent soit utile. Par contre pourquoi pas prendre un outil plus Ă©pais, ou Ă©largir les traits de maniĂšre progressive comme j'ai dit juste avant ^^
