Here is a color-coded 3D model of the initial twisted form.

For me, the most confusion comes from losing track of which edge is which after rotation in space. So I tried to explain it to myself with a process like this—maybe it helps?
1. Draw a rectangle.
2. Select the twist rotation by rotating each square 90 degrees further using the arrows.
3. Assign a shape to each corner to define its identity.
4. Connect points with the same shape using a smooth spline.
5. Darken the visible lines for emphasis.

I tried to put on paper what I learned from this lesson. I started with the arrows in orthographic view, rotated them within the plane, and then pulled them up toward and above the horizon line.
you look like you did a good job, just a little more practice. maybe setup one perspective on the arrows might help

Here we go—starting to explore the design space of lettering! Versions 1–14 so far, aiming for 100 different 3D letters.
Asked for help
Here are some one-point perspective letters I worked on.

Here, I created a cave using the pancake technique. The dark shading in the background seems to counteract the foreground, middle ground, and background separation. That’s something I would approach differently next time.
Asked for help
Here, I applied the pancake method to different landscapes, experimenting with form modifications and adding variety. It’s been a lot of fun discovering interesting spaces! Below, you’ll find the more polished versions.

Here, I took a shot at drawing a skull I found on Sketchfab. (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/chamois-rupicapra-rupicapra-8c279797eed148ddac38f6e78b73e27f) I also explored how hydraulic mechanisms work on a digger and applied that concept to the skull. I really enjoy this way of thinking—studying organic forms, mechanizing them, and turning them into an interesting design.

Here, I followed along with the demos. The inked ones were done earlier on my own before watching the demo.
