Kurohagane in the post "Lesson 2: Organic Forms, Contour Lines, Dissections and Form Intersections (version 3)"

Hey, just finished lesson two. Here's my submission.

The arrows i found pretty easy. At first i would thicken the entire area around the point where two lines crossed to make it obvious which one is in the front, but that looked a bit weird so by the end i figured i should only bold the immediate "crossing".

The dissections i didn't go too wild with, most of the are just a generic blob. I tried to do a sort of a cable cross section at one point but the highlight looked weird so i sort of painted over it, result being the awkward striped long thingy. The very last figure, i didn't really know where i was going with it either.

I found the intersections very fun, though. At first i kind of went ham and just drew a lot of figures, then tried to do the intersections, but it was pretty confusing. That, coupled with my relatively small forms and thick lines made it very messy, so i gave up on it and didn't count it, and made a second one. That one went better. Then the third page, i think i got down the line weight thing pretty well, but the intersections themselves still are a bit confusing for me, so there still may be some inaccuracies in there.
