Reviewing your assignments in order:
Organic Arrows - You are missing both pages of these. When you submit your assignments, please be sure you have all of the exercises done and attached before you submit, even if that means redoing a couple of pages that you lost.
Sausages with Contour Lines - Same deal as above.
Texture Analysis - Parts of the page are cut off in the photo, so I cannot see the entire exercise. I can see most of it though, and it seems to be very well rendered! From what I can tell, you are also doing a good job transitioning to total light, but are struggling with the transition to total dark. The left side of the texture should have a smoother transition from the black stripe.
Dissections - Good job here! You are minding the curvature of the form and are breaking the silhouette of the form when necessary.
Form Intersections - I'm noticing a bit of wobbling and deformed shapes. Same deal with my Lesson 1 critique here, lines should be drawn confidently across the page for a clean, straight line. Additionally, I am seeing some deformed cubes. The 250 Box Challenge (which was supposed to be done between Lessons 1 & 2) would help with this. Other than those points, your shapes seem to be well-grouped and intersecting as they should.
Organic Intersections - I am seeing some very complicated forms being drawn in this exercise. I'm glad that you are able to draw these, but the assignment calls for simpler sausage forms. The sausages you do have seem to be laying on top of one another, but it is hard for me to tell. Additionally, the shadows of your sausages seem to be sticking to your forms instead of acting as true cast shadows in some areas.
You seem to be doing a great job with the core ideas, but will unfortunately need to ask for revisions due to missing work. I would also like to see you do 1 more page of the Organic Intersections exercise and submitting a better photo of your Texture Analysis exercise to make sure that you are understanding them.

Every now and then I'll get someone asking me about which ruler I use in my videos. It's this Wescott grid ruler that I picked up ages ago. While having a transparent grid is useful for figuring out spacing and perpendicularity, it ultimately not something that you can't achieve with any old ruler (or a piece of paper you've folded into a hard edge). Might require a little more attention, a little more focus, but you don't need a fancy tool for this.
But hey, if you want one, who am I to stop you?
