Thanks for the feedback, I've tried to incorporate all of it into the extra pages, found here: https://imgur.com/a/bDlcRPO

The looseness in drawing feels the most challenging to incorporate as I tend to tense my arm when going in for the actual stroke after ghosting, but I'm working on it.

Overall these are looking much better, though there were a few issues I caught that I do want you to keep in mind - for example, the importance of never jumping into too much complexity without the appropriate underlying structure to support it. this comes up with some of your more complex leaf structures, as highlighted here. On the bottom left, I'm also rather confused as to why there appears to be two different kinds of leaves existing together, one stamped on the other.

Aside from that, the rest is coming along well. I'll go ahead and mark this lesson as complete.

Next Steps:

Move onto lesson 4.

OH. Yeah I know why, I misunderstood/misinterpreted something in the original lesson that I now understand better looking at the link you just provided. Thanks again for the feedback, it's been very helpful.

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).
