    Lightbulb Tips on sketchbook? (Illustration)

    I'm applying for OCADU for illustration, and I need help on my sketchbook. I recently went to the National Portfolio day at OCADU, and the person who was criticizing me told me that my sketchbook was lacking a lot of things. He told me that my sketchbook does not have enough things to show progress. I showed him that I had thumbnails, but he said that was not enough. There needed to be more. I can't really think of any other ways to show 'progress'. Any ideas?
    Also, any tips on sketchbooks would be nice. So far I have some still life, and my own ideas. Anything else?

    1. show your sketchbook

    2. draw from observation

    3. Draw a lot.

    If you don't show your sketchbook on here, how is anyone supposed to tell you what's wrong with it?
    Fudge this AWESOME place!!!

    My SKETCHBOOK: please critique! i can take it!

    To limit one's maximum knowledge is to maximize one's limits.

    Sanity is wasted on the boring.
