Greetings Vintages , I reviewed your homework and here are my observations;
1 super imposed lines
short lines are quite good,
but extended lines suffer from *S* curve.2 ghosted lines
very little overshooting,
long lines still have curves.3 ghosted planes
taking a picture before you draw ellipses over planes is adviced.
planes are constructed better with each attempt, that's a good start.4 table of ellipse
gets better with each attempt5 elipse on planes
second stroke is consistently shortter than first one,
try not to tighten the arm in attempt to follow the previous path of ellipse 6 funnels
don't make the funnels too convex7 plotted perspcetive
good as supposed to be.8 rough perspective
decent attempt9 rotated boxes
if an mistae is made don't redraw over it to fix it.10 organic perspective
draw boxes with varied dimensions if you may.major take aways
fix the S curve in the strokes
don't over draw to fix mistakes
if you are tired don't rush to the end of the homework. take rest and resume when recharged.
Next Steps:
please take your time to fix s curve
repeat the ellipse on planes worksheets

Hi, thanks for replying to my post..
I've repeated elipses in planes exercises and I've also taken the picture before drawing the elipses on top of it.

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.
Ellipse Master Template
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
