Arrows:-

arrows are well done

Sausages with ellipse and contour:-

you drew them equally but you drew to many ellipse the purpose of this exercise is to only make u understand 3D so make only 3 ellipse thats it for that same with the contouring.

Texture:-

texture well done you drew cast shadows which is what we want.

Texture on sausages:-

here the problem is in the first page where u should have drawn only cast shadows denser at the edges but fainter when you go towards the middle but you corrected that in after dawings so thats fine.

2nd texture top left of the sheet looks flat the crevices shadows are not made around the sausage contour

and u forgot that the center will be seen as well. since it is a sliced cucumber like shape.

the rest is done well, intersection exercise was hard to begin with so, i will just say if u have a bit of problem check this link:-

my final note:- make sure to practice sausages before doing any drawing since its very important in the coming chapters. and goodluck.

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
