Hello! Like I said on the discord I think you're ready for lesson 4! Just remember the thingy about cylinders and branches I told you.
So I'm adding another comment so you can get it marked as complete. Good luck!
Next Steps:
Lesson 4

Half of the plant drawings were supposed to be your own, not following the step-by-step tutorials. You only drew 2 out of 8 on your own.
Those 2 plants your drew on your own are also pretty low in complexity, especially the carton plant. Your homework is for your own benefit. How difficult you make it is largely up to you, but I'd encourage you to increase the difficulty to get more out of this. Let's be honest, drawing that carton plant didn't teach you much of anything and the summer crops aren't much better. Maybe get some inspiration by looking at what other people are doing for their lesson 3 homework.
It's up to you, but I expect at least 2 more custom plant drawings to consider this homework complete.
Next Steps:
Draw at least 2 more plants on your own. I'd encourage you to do 4 more though.

Sorry about that! I decided to do the 4 plant construction drawings on my own like you recommended here: https://imgur.com/a/NFanBWu
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
