25 Wheel Challenge
6:46 PM, Tuesday August 10th 2021
Hello boss,
I found out about the trap you laid for us during the first few wheels I had done... but even than I got repeatedly caught. Trying to differentiate between the form shadows and cast shadows and mainting a coherent silhouette is really hard. I won't flagellate myself but I am not happy with my understanding of this concept.
Especially the last wheel gave me a hard time since the direct sunshine in the reference caused strong cast and form shadows and also the silhouette is very bumpy. Would you be so kind and tell me how you would approach the last wheel? The reference is at the end of the submission.
Thank you very much for your critique.
*I have only a limited ellipse templates set and a master template so sometimes I had to use a same angle for the front and back ellipse or dramatically different ones
*I used an ellipse template and ruler for the first minor axis the rest I free handed - I was not sure if the french curve is OK for this challenge
