I've tried to incorporate what you've said, im sorry I keep sending these updates I really just don't want to get to the end of it and then have to do 750 cylinders, i still feel i'm struggling a lot with aligning ellipses with larger degrees on the minor axes, and i've been ghosting the side lines, it also took 1 hour 9 minutes and I did a 15 minute warm up before starting: https://imgur.com/a/bfEhylB, thanks!

These are definitely looking much better. I get that you're afraid about me assigning you another 250, but that is probably not going to happen. It's not a random, arbitrary choice that I made, and it is not something I generally do all that often. As long as you're actively putting the effort and time into each and every cylinder, then you'll be fine.

I've finished the 150 non-boxed cylinders https://imgur.com/a/JvbJTna, i feel i really struggled with getting the tightness down in larger ellipses and alligning them to the minor axis. Sorry I scribbled some of the cylinders out, i just got really frustrated about them and how I didn't really take my time on them. Near the end I was still puting around 1 hour into 15 cylinders but I still felt they weren't getting good enough, I feel near 130-150 I rushed them as it was near the end of the 150. Are these ok?

They're looking fine. I'm obviously not going to give you a full critique here, as you were requested to complete the whole thing, and I hope you won't be submitting again until the whole thing is complete - but for the sake of your reassurance, they're fine.

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.
