Got it, thank you!!

Thank you, Uncomfortable!

I am not sure how I would have done the edges of the Gingko different -- I actually went back to the original "scaffolding" shape multiple times. But I cut too immediately in it, which is unavoidable or I could have used two flow lines as you suggested for the Ivy.

I really took away a lot from this feedback, so thank you again!

I have added some notes from your feedback, so I can try to incorporate them for Lesson 4!

Notes from Lesson 3 Feedback

• Do not hyperfocus on reference, will result in stiffness for dynamic objects

• Draw bigger so I can draw from the shoulder better

• Draw through ellipses twice or thrice at most

• Close all objects for drawabox

• Use minor axis helper line for cylindrical shaped objects

• Focus on texture, not decoration:

    ? Texture is any cast shadows by (potentially tiny) 3D forms

    ? Decoration can be an endless task

    ? Construction is for viewer's hands, texture is for viewer's fingers

• Use as little textural detail as you need to

• Look at one specific textural form at a time in the reference and decide on its cast shadow

Thank you Tofu, I think your critique is on point. Still, I have a thing to note here:

But I think I may not have full control of the fact that the lines are converging in pairs. Due to the construction technique taught in the lesson, we always draw the outer edges first. With practice, I think most of the outer lines turned out to be decent from me. But the kicker is that the inner corner defines three lines, which are competing with each other. Sometimes, I made two lines look good and sacrificed the other, while sometimes I made everything a bit worse by averaging the 3 intersections. But taking the other outer edge that crosses near the inner edge is a good hint, thanks!

Looks really cool, but some of your vehicles look a bit short.
