Hello Singingmute, thank you for getting back to me with your work.

In general, don't submit more work for revisions than what was assigned, it's unnecessary as if you're still running into trouble doing more pages might not necessarily fix it without the feedback of your critiquer, and might instead reinforce bad habits. You'll get plenty of time to revisit these exercises and hone your skills during your warm ups.

Moving onto your revisions your page of leaves is looking better than your initial attempt, I'm also happy to see that you're thinking through your mistakes and how to make your leaves look more natural, your edge detail also looks good.

For your branches it's good to see that you're following the instructions more closely, but remember that your new segment should start at the ellipse point of your branch, not just close to it but on top of it.

Your plant constructions are looking very solid, although it would have been good to see you making use of two different types of plants for your revisions in order to apply your skills to two different kinds of challenges.

Overall, your work is good and you're on track to getting a lot out of these exercises and I'm happy to see you're applying my feedback, as such I'm going to be marking this lesson as complete. Good luck in Lesson 4.

Next Steps:

Don't forget to keep practicing these exercises during your warm ups.

Move on to Lesson 4.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.

The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
