Hmm. It seems that though you have understood what needs to be done you lack practice. As such you may move forward for now but make it an absolute point to practice drawing ellipses each day as warmup. Another thing i'd like to point out is that you are drawing way too many superimpositions. Limit them to two. Also keep your primary focus on getting a smooth and consistent lines then move towards drawing an ellipse which sits perfectly within the plane. I'll share a photo on discord about how you can make better ellipses.

Next Steps:

Though you may move forward towards the 250 boxes challenge practice drawing ellipses each day as warmup before starting the challenge.

Alright, I understand. I'll make sure to practice elipses in planes before drawing!

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
