Thank you!

Was a really difficult challenge to go through, did around 6 boxes (somedays more) a day and it got a bit straining. However I am glad I got through.

I should have really focused a lot more on forshortening. I somewhat forgot about it after a while and I should have gone through the challenge page a few times more throughout. I will keep that in mind while doing this excercise as warmup.

Hope you have a great day too! I gave you critique too. Hope you will find that helpful.

Heya! No problem! It is my pleasure :)

There's always things we can improve on, I'm confident you'll grow to be an amazing artist if you keep it up like this!

Thanks for critique!!!

Ellipse Master Template

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.
