Instructions from Uncomfortable
As you go through them, start integrating the exercises back into your warmup routine, and when you feel you're ready I'd say the best bet here would be to start Lesson 3 over. So your next homework submission should consist of all the assignments from Lesson 3.
Please see link above - thanks for your time.

Once again, thanks again for your time and explanations. Also that imgur for the contour curves was really useful in getting a better grasp of the concept, atleast to me.
On the scratchy shadows - I felt like a big shot and got a brush pen after finishing the 250 box challenge and have been trying to use it more... I did watch a Peter Han tutorial on youtube.. so I am an expert now. But in all seriousness, like most things, he makes it look a lot easier than it actually is.
Thanks again and below are the requested attempts.

Whoa. This is an amazing critique. Thanks for the time and effort you took in reviewing this. It helps alot I can see why this resource is raved about so much.
Here is my assignment and I really tried to focus on your feedback of confident, hesitation-free stroke. Personally, I feel like my line work for the planes were more comfortable, however, the ellipses definately took an accuracy hit.
As requested:
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
