Hello thank you for taking your time to critique my work here's my revisions. I'm not sure if my organic intersections is done correctly,I still struggle with this mainly drawing the shadow underneath.

Hey Kat, Good news is that you’re hitting your mark on the placement of the forms much better. It’s also great that you’re putting more effort into the shape of the cast shadows. When we’re conscious of the projection of cast shadows onto the forms below, we can convince the viewer that the individual forms exist in the same space as one collective pile. My main concern is still the lack of line weight, which can really affect how someone can automatically distinguish which forms are in front or behind. I share your sentiment about cast shadows, and admittedly, it's something I still struggle with myself. (my Lesson 2 submission was a train wreck.) Lesson 2 itself packs a lot of concepts to digest in one go; going back to read/watch topics relating to cast shadows sometimes offers new pockets of information that might have been missed during the first visit. Overall, I think you're taking steps in the right direction here.

Now the animal construction, as you could probably guess I'm looking for how you're applying these 3 things; 1. Torso Sag, 2. Simple Sausages, and 3. Additional Forms. I think you've satisfied all three so I'll just be offering some advice in situations where you might not have been fully attentive. You'll find it here.

All in all, I think you understand the Lesson 5 concepts well, so I’ll go ahead and send you off to the 250 Cylinder Challenge. Keep up the good work.

Next Steps:

Remember to take these exercises into your warm-ups (10–15 minutes), and you can move on towards the 250 Cylinder Challenge. Good Luck!

How to Draw by Scott Robertson

When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
