Hello Mr. Hanzell, my name is Canoe and I'd be happy to look over your lesson 6 submission.

Starting with your form intersections, there's nothing about your decisions that strike me here as wrong, or at least wrong enough to warrant a draw-over. This is something you can expect to continuously improve on as you keep doing this exercise for your warmups. Overall, you show a good understanding of how these forms relate to one another in 3d space. You've also done a good job employing extra line weight to emphasize which edges go which. This greatly helps the readability of your intersections and shows a solid understanding of this exercise's purpose.

Moving on to the objects, the demo objects you've submitted all show a good grasp on the various aspects we need to keep track of when constructing objects, namely the convergence of our boundingbox/subdivisions and appropriate placement of individual parts like ellipses. Again, you've done an excellent job of employing extra line weight around the silhouette of the object to give it a greater sense of solidity.

For your stapler, there seems to be a bit of a disconnect between the top of your bounding box and the top of the stapler based on your orthos. Orthos are like a more complicated form of the two dots you place on the page for the ghosted lines exercise. They are a statement of your intention before you act and function to spread out the drawing process over as many steps as possible. Essentially, you offload all the hard thinking and measuring to your orthos, freeing up your brain to tackle the construction later. It's very tempting to want to adjust after observing your reference and believe me, I'm guilty of this too. However, acting on the plan we set out beforehand and seeing it through to completion will yield more for our confidence, rather than second guessing ourselves at every step of the process. That's a lot of words for a small mismatch, and you've done a good job sticking to your plans in your orthos with the other objects. With the emphasis this lesson places on the use of othrgraphic studies, it's important to reiterate this point whenever it comes up.

Like I said, the remainder of your objects do a good job sticking to your orthos. Additionally, they also have a good sense of solidity with the extra line weight around the silhouette, as well as through your use of cast shadows to highlight certain forms over others. There's not much more I can say, really. Overall, your work shows a good understanding of how these objects exist in 3d space and I look forward to seeing how you apply these concepts to the cars moving forward!
