This lesson took forever. The texture exercises along with the form intersections were the most daunting, I still have a hard time visualizing how 2 forms pushed together intersect.

Hy. You did well on the exercises:

1: Arrows exercise was good, try to put more depth into them.

2: Textures exercise: You really did well, love it. My textures were a great surprise, I didn't know that I could do so well, I think you fell the same.

3: Form Intersections is really hard, you need to practice that one, try to think more where the objects intersect.

4: Organic Intersections was easier for me than Form intersections, try to use less interior lines and make them more efficient, many of them are straight and this is taking their depth and 3D shape away.

Go to the next one.

Good Luck.

Next Steps:

Just Practice more forms intersections and go to the next.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll have to practice more form intersections. I think you did a good job with your texture exercises as well

How to Draw by Scott Robertson

When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
