Hii Darkozet, I'll be reviewing your homework today.
First of all, congratulations on finishing all the exercises!
Arrows
I think you did a good job on this one, you compressed your arrows making them bigger and bigger as they came closer to the viewer, which is very important to create the 3D illusion. However, I noticed some line repetition which is something to be avoided, whenever you make a mistake you should consider as if it were correct and move on.
Organic forms
These are great! You kept the forms simple, you drawn through the ellipses 2 times, they are within the boundaries of the forms, they are also aligned with the axis and their angles are changing, besides that they also are hooking the forms, so congrats!
Texture Analysis
Your drawings are pretty good here too, you focused on drawing the shadows instead of the form, but the transition between the black bar and the texture could be a bit smoother, you can still see that black bar.
Dissections
Your dissection are really good! You broke the silhouette of the forms and "wrapped up" the texture around them.
Form intersections
Everything looks quite alright for me, I dont have much to say on this one.
Organic intersections
This is also really good, the forms are simple, none of them are "floating" around and they are also shaded correctly, well done!
Overall I think you did a great job!
I hope this was helpful and I thin you're ready for the next Lesson, good luck!

on to lesson 3

Hello SuperS0nick,
Thanks a lot for your critique and for pointing out my mistakes !
The texture analysis exercise took me a long time to complete, I'll be more careful in the futur and do my best to do a smooth transitions when I'll be tackling the 25 texture challenge
This was helpful thank you again

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.
Staedtler Pigment Liners
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
