overall i think you did pretty good
-Arrows
i noticed that some of your shading is backwards so i would recommend finishing it entirely and then shading it
i also notice that near the end of your arrows the lines start to curve so I'd watch out for that,
-Leaves
pretty good, i would say to pay more attention to how the details/textures wrap around the form in 3d space
-Branches
pay more attention to how your ellipses turn in 3d
ghost over the lines that you already made more
-Plants
You were supposed to do more of your own without using the videos
overall they're pretty good though but i would recommend you draw bigger
some of your textures are kind of dense so i would focus more on the shadows
Next Steps:
Some more plant drawings in your own time
and then lesson 4

Hi,
Thankyou for your feedback!
I will do that :)
Thankyou!
PureRef
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.
