Good job. A couple things you could improve:

  1. On the rotated boxes excercise, you didn't reduce the width of the front plane of the boxes as they turned to the side, which is why it came out in the shape of a diamond rather than a sphere.

  2. On the organic perspective excercise it looks like you stopped ghosting your lines because their precision dropped a lot compared to earlier excercises. Otherwise that one looked really dynamic and great.

Thank you a lot for the feedback :)

  1. Yeah, I realized that myself but as recommended I did not make a second attempt at the exercise. I hope that I will improve at estimating the foreshortening in future exercises.

I didn't think one could spot whether I used the ghosting method or not, since I did indeed not ghost as many times over the intended line before making a mark with the organic boxes exercise. But thanks to your feedback, I will definitely ghost more before making marks in the future, thanks again :)

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
