The best one yet for this prompathon. 30 minutes but the overall perspective with the lettering is so good, im proud that i actually drew texture for the ground and gravestone that works, and the linework and line thickness is better than i've ever done. Thank you promptathon for helping me experiment and not be so paralyzed by fear of a blank page or poor execution.

Ellipse Master Template

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.
