Hi
your organic arrows are a little bit impecise and also the ellipses of te organic forms. Remember the exercises from lesson 1: draw your lines with confidence!
The inclinations of the ellipses of the organic forms are the same, you haven't thought about your forms in 3d. when you draw be careful to think about the perspective.
your texture analisys and dissections are pretty good well done!
In the texture analisys don't be afraid to use shadows, use the black pen to cast more shadows.
and in the dissections try to draw more deitail.
the form intersection was very well done good job.
the organic intersection were unconsistent. all the sausages don't have weight, they have the same form.
the shadows of that exercise do not have too much problems (try to imagine all your drawings in 3d it will help you a lot!!!)
Next Steps:
Do 2 pages of organic intersections applying also what you have learnt from the organic forms. (confident lines).
Remember the 50 percent rule: at least half of the time you spend drawing must be devoted to drawing purely for its own sake.
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. 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.
PureRef
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
