I dared to foreshortening, but I'm ashamed to say I didn't dared enough. Also I don't think I was in the right mindset while doing this. I was thinking more of having this done today to be critique than actually putting conscious effort into applying the lessons here. Also probably switching to the ruler halfway wasn't the best idea, since it change the objective from trying to understand space to precision. Would you guys agreed? Think maybe I should try with the blob approach for a while or keep trying to rough it out right away even with my poor straight line quality? Or a combination of both? What should I been thinking while doing these?

It is strange to me how I can do straight lines more confidently with a marker than with a mechanical pencil, I don't know what it is. Maybe some of you can have a theory. But after doing the rough pencil I decided to use the ruler for the axis lines. Did the same with the arrows in space and I'm getting more comfortable with the ruler. But I think I went safe with the views of these drawings. Do you see anything that needs work?

I don't know what happened with the first set of cubes/boxes that turn out like this, also with one of the arrows from memory. As you can see, by the time I realize my mistake it was already too late; what probably happen is that my mind wonder off and I just automatically redo the arrow I did just before. I also seem to have troubles with the thickness in some boxes and arrows they get wider as the go away in space, if anybody has any advice (Or you @Marshall Vandruff) to keep in mind to fix these issues freehand, I would appreciated. One more thing, Marshall or anyone, do you have a recommendation of how to use this book (or any other book of this nature) along side this course? I haven't read it yet, but I guess I could start using it now or do you think it would conflict with the curriculum of the course?

My second take on the assignment. This time I rough it and build it from a box first. As you can see in the first one the back plane doesn't really match well the front, on the other two I think I did better by starting from the back planes to the visible front, also I kind of have this problem of not been good in cleaning up my drawings in physical media. Any advice to improve on both these aspects? Also this my be a little late to ask this far in the course, but how would you recommend to get the best out of these lessons as I learn to fall in love with drawing for fun and not just work? I think I'll put the next batch on the other video.

Alright, my first try to this assignment. I hope my poor dexterity and treacherous crayons don't make it hard to see. Should I had use the color pencils to do the sketches themselves? I kind of worry that maybe I'm just doing copies and not actually analyzing perspective, so I try to be more conscious of that on my third drawing. What advice can you give to keep in mind while doing these studies?

It was my first time using the graph paper even though I had it for a while now. I probably should have use the tools instead of freehand. I'm pretty sure I was more comfortable doing straight lines freehand in the past, but I guess doing only live caricatures for a couple of years now plus the carpal tunnel atrophied that skill, or maybe I'm just been to conscious. Also maybe it was the flat angle of the table also. Should I just keep practice straight lines until they become second nature again, and not worried? Other than that, what can you see in these Orthoventions that needs work? Thank you for your time.

I try these quick iterations after watching the video. I haven't draw gestures in a while and I always do the timed sketches, but I feel like I'm still to trapped with contours even thou I always go for feeling and flow. Any advice?

Thanks for the advice Marshall.

I don't know if I'm still on time for chance to be critique or if it's gonna be a critique video of this lesson, but here's my first try on a freehand orthos. But of course because I had to shoot myself in the foot by choosing one of the most difficult Rider Machines possible for this exercise, just because the current season of Kamen Rider is soooooo good. I kinda have this bad habit of rushing to towards the end of a long drawing, which makes me kind of mess-up a little by the end. Any advice to fix that? I can already see where are some errors. I may try doing with tools next, but I will choose something more simple next time. I would love to hear any feedback.

I had to speedrun this ones today since is my day off. I apologize for my lack of imagination and poor line quality making these Rapid Iterations. I would like some advice regrading improving my imagination and line quality when I have such a limited time. I have Carpal Tunnel and I work as a Live Caricature so I mostly leave drawing for work, but since is soon going to be spring break I may not have much time for the Orthos. What advice could you give to tackle that?
