Hello Kamiyasora!
Let's jump right into your exercise
Organic Arrows
So the arrows exercise is very well done! they feel like they're moving in a 3D space and they're very flowy!
Contour Ellipses
Good job on your contour ellipses! i can see that you're a bit struggling with this exercise, i see some of the sausages are very stiff and elongated, but still you've try your best with this exercise so keep it up!
Texture Analysis
Good job with the textures analysis, you've fill your textures with solid shapes before filling your shadows
Dissection Exercise
I can't say much about this exercise other than a good job! i know this exercise is the most difficult and boring, but you keep going and the results are looking great!
Forms Intersection
Great job on this exercise! all of your forms are intersecting into one another
Organic Intersections
Good job with this exercise! i can see that some of your sausage are a bit stiff and wonky, but what's important is that you understand the concept of putting stuff on top of each other!
Well, congrats Kamisayora! after you finish exercise 2, go right ahead into exercise 3! best of luck kamisa :D

Thank you for this critique.
Ellipse Master Template
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
