    I see that you have try your best to finish this lesson and you have done it well. I know the texture exercises are super hard and these will help you to improve more if you try to approach it several time more such as read couple of times and try to think about it critically to fully understand it. So my recommendation for you is to do some of exercise in Lesson 1 as a warm-up to improve your lines quality and try to think more about construction because the aim of the course is to understand the construction not to mimic the picture without using the brain. Be happy while drawing because it will help you grow

    Next Steps:

    You should move on to the next lesson and try to understand the lesson before moving to the exercises

    In some of these pages I see that you have well apply construction but the others seem quite flat. I think you should tackle with construction mind and be thoughtful with every single lines of yours

    Next Steps:

    Try to think more about construction of the object

    Overall I see that you have follow the right way and that was a step to better. But some of your pages seem moving too quickly without consider why put this line and why have to draw like this so my recommends are read the instruction several times before going to the lesson, then you should do a 10-15 minute warm-up exercise at lesson 1-2 before every drawing and try to think more about the object construction and it texture details (You should spend more time to Observe and Analyze the subject rather than try to finish it without consideration). That's it so hope you take my advice advance and drawing everyday to get yourself to a higher place and try to have fun while drawing.

    All the best from me, Luke

    Next Steps:

    I think you can move to another sections but I refer you to look back at previous lessons, read carefully and choose exercise as warm-up exercise before every drawing

    First is I think you need to sharpen your skills more by doing previous lessons homeworks as a 15 minutes warm-up before approach the new exercises. Secondly, I think you should read the instruction several times before move into the exercise. Specially at the Plotted Perspective exercises I see you using your ruler and it quite off the track. So in overall I hope you will put your whole heart to everything you do especially Drawabox exercises.

    Thanks a lot for your critique. I will keep that in mind and moving forward.

Ellipse Master Template

Ellipse Master Template

This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.

I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.

No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
