Hey Uncomfortable, a late happy new year to you!

Here is my Lesson 2 - finally! https://imgur.com/a/b4IYt

The form intersections really gave me a hard time and pyramids do confuse me a lot if I don't start them with a box - So I will practice them some more individually (and I mostly ignored them for the form intersections).

If you decide I'm ready to move on, what would you advise to move on to? One of the next challenges or lesson 3?

Also one more question: I am drawing and painting digitally for years already, so I am used to the medium, and I thought about doing some form intersection paintings (somewhat like this https://imgur.com/6GDwxHo form study I did about a year ago, just with the form intersections exercise). Would that be a good idea or should I stick to paper and ink for now?

Hey, thanks a lot for the feedback! The construction of the cylinders with a box as a starting point indeed was pretty difficult for me.

I tried again and did some more (https://imgur.com/a/gZY4P) but I think it still looks pretty wonky and hoped maybe you have some advice? I can't really tell whether I am doing something wrong or if I just need more practice.

On the bottom of the first page, I started with a cylinder and then built the box around it because I thought that might help me to understand how it is supposed to work -this way around it actually felt a lot easier. When I start with the box it always seems like thing aren't lining up the way they are supposed to and to me, the degree of the ellipses looks kinda off on a lot of them.

Thanks a lot for your feedback! It really means a lot!

Hey there :)

I started with lesson 2 a while ago, but wanted to get the cylinders done before I moved on to the form intersections.

I'd love to hear what you think!

I hope you have a nice day!

PS: I have seen other people with a Badge for the 250 Box Challenge. I have done the challenge and already got critique from you, but I don't seem to have a badge for some reason. So I thought I'd better mention that I already did that challenge :)
