Hey there :D Finally finished lesson 3.

There was a pretty extreme heatwave while I was working through this, so the quality drops below what I would have liked a couple of times, but I guess that's how it goes.

I found plants like mushrooms and cacti far easier than the plants with thin stems and tons of petals of leaves, so specifically I'm looking for feedback on those more intricate flowers, but of course all critiques are highly appreciated :D

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
