Hi Uncomfortable. Here are my cylinders: https://photos.app.goo.gl/AoCnSG7cmgHRvxfR6

Let me know what you think. I appreciate your time.

The redline is incredibly helpful! Thank you very much. I will try to put all of your feedback into practice.

Yeah, it didn't seem right to me either when I was adding those "bridging the gap" lines. For some reason I got the idea you wanted that, but when I looked back through the demos, that idea was nowhere to be found. I'll get rid of that practice first thing.

I did intentionally try to avoid hiding lines and drawing through. I was initially surprised when you said I wasn't always doing it, but I looked over my drawings carefully again and of course you were right. Bad habits die hard I suppose. I'll keep working at it.

Here is one that I didn't post initially because it doesn't include many of the contour lines I think you want, but maybe it does represent a better drawing after all as I think it is more on target with your critique here. I'd really appreciate if you would take just a quick look.

Thank you for the careful critique.

Hi Uncomfortable, here are those additional drawings you asked for: https://photos.app.goo.gl/vPe9Fts8zzukezMx8

Hopefully I've made some improvements. Thank you for your time as always.

I truly appreciate how much time and attention you gave this critique. Yes, I started the work before the site update and finished after. I actually did read over the lesson update when it was release as well as several sections of previous lessons. Clearly I did not pick it up as intended, though, which is disappointing. I will go back over the material. Two of the links in the critique point to the wrong things (the one for the dog and the second reference to the tiger), so I'm not exactly sure which were being referred to. At any rate, I will work on some new drawings that hopefully better incorporate your points.

Here is my second attempt for this lesson. I omitted most texture and just tried to concentrate on the things you pointed out in my first try. I used many of the same reference images from that first round to allow for better comparison. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! https://photos.app.goo.gl/7ZNf61Lvgeg8oDRk6

Wonderful feedback and excellent points! Thank you for taking the time to describe what is working as well as the things to watch out for. This really helps.

Here is my submission for Lesson 3: https://photos.app.goo.gl/HKuQhfxmQbZHm32N7

All were done from life. Since I only drew one per page, I included more than 8. I definitely haven't figured out how to group things using value yet, as you can see from the multiple drawings of the same plant.

Thank you so much. I only started to realize that about the contour form shadows at the very end and then was still a bit unsure how to better accomplish it. Thank you for pointing it out. It helps to make sure I don't neglect to improve that.

I also appreciate you taking the time to compare the first and second attempt at the organic forms. When I completed the first, I was happy with it for a few minutes but then began to see the problems. I then watched the video and noticed how you drew each form in its entirety. I figured that must be the difference and am glad that it seems to have paid off.

Here is a link to my finished boxes: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Fc6nRpLiG3AeXUbF3

This was a very humbling exercise. Although I have drawn plenty of boxes in 3D before, drawing the hidden side and extending the lines highlighted just how off I have been.
