Week 8 Progress

 I am pretty happy with my progress so far. I've kept with the course and not missed an assignment. I do wish I had worked ahead though. I started off a week ahead, but I quickly fell back to being just in time. I think as the semester ramped up, I definitely let these assignments slip a little bit. 

Looking forward, I want to see if I can find more time to work ahead rather than just going with whatever is due that day.

I've been working on studying the parts of the face and I think I've been improving with these lips. A lot of what has helped me is thinking about how goes around a round object. This and working from references to see how things are actually supposed to look, rather than what my mind thinks they look like, are the biggest factors in trying to get better for me.

Week 8 Comments and Feedback

 I think the feedback I've been receiving has been pretty good. The better ones are definitely from the 150-word assignments where people use the WWW or TAG method. Storytelling has never been my strong suit so the class has been helpful for me.  I hope the comments I've been leaving have been useful. I try to focus more on any questions that the reading has left me with. Things like questioning why people did what they did. I like the WWW feedback method the most. Mostly because it's really easy to remember,  The intro posts have been an alright way to get to know people. I think it's definitely less of a connection than being physically together for a couple hours every week. For an all online class though I think it works. I think with feedback, a lot of people are scared of being harsh or mean, so they may not give feedback fully. I think I need to read more critically because I definitely also do this.
