    so how should I have done the arc between the humps, should I have layered more masses onto the back in a sort of triangle fashion?

    Oh sorry my bad, this one should work https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1p6Lu-DlSNInGLjpCTfeeZTWh7ugM8RaE?usp=sharing

    Edit: Looking at them now I realize that I still didn't really treat the heads as 3d puzzles :/

    Tried forcing myself to take more time on these and I think it payed off :). Though, for my kangaroo I wasn't really sure how to make the calves, or whatever the long part of their back legs, look more 3d. In hindsight I suppose I could have added a form on the front or back of it so it looks like its got that indent it has, but not sure if that would've worked. Anyway Thanks!

    It sounds dumb when I explain it but I found that I was struggling with the leaf exercise because I don't really think ahead of how much space to leaf leave for myself when I wanted to do the more complex leaves in the middle, which ended up with them being squished. I also notice that I'm struggling to relax while drawing and cause I get caught up in the thought of making mistakes after I've made a bad mark and it causes me to make more bad marks.

How to Draw by Scott Robertson

When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
