Don't redo the work, just keep going. It's entirely normal for students to have lots of issues with their texture work, as its role in Lesson 2 is more to introduce the problem (especially introducing it as a spatial reasoning problem where we think about the relationships between the forms casting the shadows and the surfaces receiving them, when designing the shadow shapes themselves), so that when we start delving more directly into spatial reasoning through the constructional drawing exercises in Lessons 3-7, it can help point what students learn in the intended direction.

All in all, don't worry too much about it, and at the end of the day, always remember that the purpose of the homework is to create a body of work that represents what you do understand, what you don't understand, and how you're currently going about approaching the work. If part of that involves missing instructions, then it's worth having that called out by someone else, because it'll have far more impact than if you simply catch yourself and fix it quietly without ever having anyone else notice.

Wescott Grid Ruler

Wescott Grid Ruler

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?
