Arrows:
-Good job on these, they flow nicely and the hatching is well executed.
Organic Forms:
-Vary the openess of your contour lines more.
Texture:
-Excellent job on these, you've done a successful job at conveying the shadow shapes and the gradient transition.
-Good on the dissections too, but there could be more of a gradient transition and the silhouette looks a bit too dark.
Form Intersections:
-I would advise against running your hatching parallel to your plane, just looks rather confusing
-Consider how the surface of one object will interact with the other. At times you ended up flattening forms like the cones on the third page.
Organic Intersections:
-At times the shadow shape doesn't follow the shape it is being cast on. On the first page look at the leftmost form.
Good job, you've demostrated your understanding of the concepts. Feel free to move on to the next lesson.

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
