Just realised I replied to the wrong post above. Here's my 4 more pages: https://imgur.com/a/stI28iG

Thanks!

I used a scanner this time so image quality is much better.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks very much for the feedback. I'll do the extra pages and get back to you after the 1st of the month.

Hi Uncomfortable, here's my Lesson 3 submission: https://imgur.com/a/WFR8tJs (Apologies for the image quality. I could go and take some better photos if you need me to.)

I didn't finish adding detail to some of my drawings because I wanted to focus more on the constructions rather than on doing lots of laborious work finishing loads of leaves. Not that I mind doing that, I just didn't feel it was the point here.

I feel like I did improve over the set at least a little at being able to see single forms in 3D and knowing how to place them. I think I sucked at organising lots of forms together though, e.g. the leaves of the potato plant in places look like they are not really related in 3 dimensions because of my weak initial construction and then losing track of it as I struggled to make sense of tons of overlapping forms.

Thanks very much for this feedback. It's really motivating to hear that you think I'm making progress. I will keep your notes in mind as I move on with Lesson 3.

Hi again, here's my Lesson 2: https://imgur.com/a/Etdco6K

I feel like I focused much better with this lesson, but I still slipped up from time to time. I found it much easier to work on the textures for long periods without losing focus, than on the form intersections, for some reason. I'm quite unsatisfied with the form intersections, which got unnecessarily sloppy at times.

Anyway, thanks in advance for your feedback.
