I must say, you have quite a good showing here. I want to give in depth feedback, but you have a very good understanding of each exercise and make very few, if any mistakes.
Your strokes are confident for the most part, your ellipses in your organic forms change degrees in ways that create a sense of depth and form, your intersecting forms feel like they occupy the same space, your textures adhere to their respective surfaces, etc. The only thing that I think I can count as a mistake is that some of your organic forms in your organic intersections stray away from the simple two-balls-connected-by-a-cylinder structure that's recommended, but you drew more than enough of them that they aren't much of an issue.
I'm also not sure what to say about the colored inks for some of your pages, particularly the pink ink for the form intersections. I personally don't count it as an issue, but some others might. Just for future reference, I recommend keeping the ink color to black.
Next Steps:
I believe that it's safe to say that you're ready to move on to lesson 3. You have a more than solid enough understanding of the material from this lesson.
I personally would also recommend that you apply some of the simpler exercises as warm ups going forward, like the organic forms and the arrows. These will help you to keep your drawing of 3D space practiced.
Keep on drawing.
Thank you so much for your feedback!
Sorry about the ink, my black fineliner ran out, but I found a ton of old colored fineliners haha
I will definitely use some of these as warmups as you say. The boxes and planes got a bit boring.
Cheers!
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).
