Okay, I think you need more time to get comfortable with this exercise. You are getting a sense for how to pile the sausages on top of each other, but you can still do a better job when it comes to the cast shadows, these are no different from the countour lines, that means that when you draw them you should also be mindful of how the surface they are falling on turns in space. Try drawing them perpendicularly to the sausage, most of them look like they are running parallel to it.
So keep all of these things in mind for your future attempts at this exercise, I'm pleased with your work so far so I'll mark this lesson as complete
Next Steps:
Lesson 3

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
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.
