added comment inCritique - Cross Contour on Organic Forms
2d
I don't know why I struggle so much with line weights. I guess my mind is very literal and technical thats why it easier for me to apply strict line rules to mechanical drawings ... but on organic shapes I struggle. Thanks for the feedback tho.

@Stan Prokopenko Thanks for the critique - have you realized yet that the next lesson of this course will be N°100 and will there be cake?

Level 1 - old race car ‘inspired by’ Maserati 250F. Level 2 - a made up tracked vehicle that puts out fires instead of starting them (echoing @Johannes Schiehsl re tanks!) inspired by Antarctic tracked vehicle.

Excuse me Mr. Teacher .. didn't you tell us to make it in 3 point perspective? Also ... why do I feel like the proportions of your boxes are a bit ... wonky? ^^

Trying another one, more ambitious, with cylinders going along every axis. One thing I struggled with is how to join the chimney cylinders to the engine cylinder - could someone please help?
Also, I feel like the perspective is too drastic and it makes the whole thing distorted. Should I have put the vanishing points further away?
For Form Intersection there is a neat website where you can study:

i love trucks - i constructed a generic semi with saddle.
I don't love tanks too much tho. They are way too present these days for my taste. May they all rust in peace soon.

If you are like me and the major axis gives you major headaches: don't worry.
Scott Robertson in his book describes how the minor axis is key to place the ellipse successfully in perspective.
Nevertheless: I made a little animation to make it easier to observe what is happening with the major axis. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/R4XWJ1ct1gI

Here is an animated illustration I did for my animation students about 1 to 5 point perspective. I also explain to them that these are tools to create the illusion of 3d space on a flat surface like a piece of paper, a screen or a cinema canvas.

Hand assignments. I felt pretty confident while making level 1 but during level 2 - not so much. I tried solving it from imagination, then take photos or pose a hand in a 3d software and self correct. But the pose 2 hand still looks like it ended up in a blender. Some advice would come in handy.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five ...
Inspired by the animation that @Fabian Ayala did for the 1-point perspective I animated transformations from 1 to 5 point perspective. It was fun but challenging. Looking forward to your thoughts.
