No 1 appears to have more rugged edges to learn from, although I like no 3 as well for the rock beneath. Many ruins are to be found on high places such as rocks. No 1 preference please Scottie.

Mr. M

#3 for me, though I'm still working on the car! Am really looking forward to something without wheels!

Elly

number 3 but with a tree 🌳

Sally D

1 please

Zoey

#3 for me. I’d love to see how you tackle the craggy bits of rock without getting overwhelmed by the details. (Also would you consider a tutorial on something like the Sagrada Familia basilica in Barcelona maybe one day?)

Frieda

I chose 3. Because of the rock formation. I am interested in how to tackle this.

Jan Holden

Either 1 or 3 please Scottie (although I’ve gone back to work through the fundamentals at present😀).

Simona

3 for me, for i need to learn how to sketch the rock🤗

Aimee

I was thinking 3 at first, but went with 1 due to the “layering/stacking” of the different parts of the castle.

Paul

Thanks Scottie love your sketches

Mónica

Number 1 please.
