    Dear Uncornfortable,

    (as I don't know your real name) - I just wanted to thank you for the great thorough feedback and the time you put in. You really seem to be doing this with your heart in it.

    As for the heads - I actually drew the rhino-head and also the other head demos I found on the page. Just somehow my heads don't look as good as they should. Another point of doubt for me are the eyes. Although I follow along with the suggestions it seems that I do something wrong, as they always look ugly..

    Best wishes,

    Julia

    I think that only these boxes were missing; I looked through them all. If there is something else which the submission lacks, please let me know.

    Here is the link for the exercises you required me to do again; may I move on to the 250 boxes challenge now?

    Thank you, I did the exercises again you asked me for; I hope it is ok; the boxes took me long; https://imgur.com/a/oI54W8V

    I will reply with the works required but I have one question concerning the 250 box challenge - is it also freehand? I think I couldn't find it anywhere, and yes, sometimes I am unsure as to whether to do it freehand or with ruler..

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something we've used ourselves, or know to be of impeccable quality. If you're interested, here is a full list.
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.
