Actually everything looks really solid. Thats what made me notice it because everything was so perfect except for that. I think you've done excellent work otherwise. I don't mean to nitpick. It is just a sketch after all. I think I have ocd when it comes to ellipses.

The ellipse on the end of the tank cannon on figure 2.6 is incorrect.

The thing about the owl lesson is that all the information you need to draw it is already there. Its not there as a step by step diagram but the information you need is there. Someone has already translated a real life 3 dimensional owl and replicated it on a 2 dimensional surface. Your copying something that is already drawn. The hard part is already done. The details / texture is what makes it look so darn complicated. If you remove this pattern the resulting image is not difficult to replicate. As I mentioned before it is already a 2d drawing so the hard part is already done. Copying a drawing isnt even close to as difficult as drawing from life.
