Hi there!
Overall these look pretty good;
Some of your leaves seem to suffer from the mistake of not folding naturally https://drawabox.com/lesson/3/2/folding, though overall you're actually pretty good at getting them to fold through space and feel 3D and conform to perspective.
I've circled some of the ones I think fold unnaturally in red, and circled some of the ones I think are especially good in blue
You seem to be quite good at getting your leaves to conform to perspective and feel like they're moving through real, 3D space, so well done there.
You're making a valiant attempt to apply the branch technique properly in your earlier plants and in the branches exercise, but I see your lines get a little wobbly and shaky on the smaller branches. Watch for that, focus on your confidence first and foremost.
You seem to be working constructively and additively throughout your exercises, which is very good to see. Well done there, keep that up.
I think you've got a pretty solid understanding of the fundamentals of construction presented throughout the lesson.
Well done
Next Steps:
All looks good, Move on to Lesson 4 now
Hello,
Thank you very much for taking the time to critique my work. I will be sure to practice my branches and twisting my leaves in 3D space in my warm ups, and thank you for your words of encouragement.
A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
