Hello, thank you greatly for taking your time and writing such a detailed critique! Sorry, if you had to wait too long for the answer! I really appreciate your comment about hair, I confirmed that it's indeed the case in yesterday's 50%-rule drawing.

Here I redid one page of the intersections https://imgur.com/a/XejQaFn, tried my best to keep the foreshortening consistent and the items to be roughly the same size.

Oh, don't worry about the wait time! I hope you didn't have to rush through it actually.

  • The new intersections page looks great, actually.

Comparing it to the previous ones, you'll see that in this one the objects look much more related.

I will now mark your lesson as complete; and go ahead without hurrying.

  • Glad to hear my comment about the hair was helpful too!

No, no rushing, I try to go in a comfortable rate. I'm very glad you think there's improvement in the form intersections excersice, it's actually pretty amusing, makes me feel like I'm a brutalism-style architect.

Again, thank you for your review!

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.
