In the arrow exercise I like how you showed depth with the width variation.

The eclipses need to be worked on a little bit. They are off. Also in the countour lines the lines a straighter. I would curve them a little.

I really like the lines you are drawing they are good.
-
The shadows in construction exercises are a bit off. But you will get them eventually.
-
Need to focus more on drawing the eclipses.

I think while drawing the cylinders drawing major and minor axis helped me a lot in understanding in 3D. You should try it too. It might be a help.
I liked the the overall work you did. I will mark the lesson as complete. My work needs review too. It would be great it you have some time.
Next Steps:
Onward to lesson 3. Maybe have a look at 250 cylinders challenge and get a rough idea about drawing cylinder. And bit by bit tacking the 25 textures challenge.

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.
