These are definitely much improved, and more in line with what was covered in the lesson. Just one thing - looking at the leaves of the plant on the bottom of this page, you're definitely zigzagging your edges back and forth across the previous phase of construction, as explained here. You should not be attempting to redraw the entire edge from one phase of construction to the next. You should only be drawing the parts that change, as shown here on another student's work.

Anyway, be sure to keep that in mind. I'll go ahead and mark this lesson as complete.

Next Steps:

Feel free to move onto lesson 4.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Thanks for your critique. I looked back at the reference (https://media.gerbeaud.net/2018/08/640/abricots.jpg) and it seems unvoidable to do this zigzaging, because the changes appeared all the way of the edges. I'm not sur to be clear. But maybe I should not follow completely the ref ?

Thanks again

Here's a quick example of how I would tackle that leaf without zigzagging. As you can see in the third step, I'm adding three individual strokes, one for each big bump.

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.
