Hopefully not too late with my exercices! I've been busy lately with work and life so it was a bit hard to keep up this time but I'm trying my best!! :))
I had fun drawing them freehanded and I even noticed a general improvement in the precision of my drawings because I was much more paying attention to which angles do compose the shapes. I think it's mainly due to the fact I've been studying all the angles on a daily basis with the provided template by Marshall, drawing them, naming them, remembering them, dreaming of them over and over for weeks... well maybe not that last part but I now feel it was well worth it to drill them into my brain haha

Here is my most recent stuff, as well as the assignment work I posted in the previous video which is a few days old, more carefully done, yet perhaps less confident as I am noticing mistakes. If anyone else is having trouble with intuiting perpendicular angles from all sort of viewer positions like I am, the transparent forms found on Amazon are a lifesaver - you can look through them to see the way axes progress in any type of rotation or tilt.
Lovely work on the assignement and thanks a lot for sharing about the transparent forms, wasn't aware these existed. They will definitely help ! x))

Hello Stan!
Drew these without watching the demo yet. The pears went relatively easy (I've had some pears/apples/eggs/teapot/... training done before) but surprisingly, the portrait was harder than I expected value wise. I tried to stay within the range of 5 values but might have been a bit overboard sometimes haha (counted 6 actually)
All in all I think it was a great thing lvl 2 was included for the challenge because this gave me a goal, with a good insight on what I already know and what I still need to train. Looking forward to the rest of the course!
Thank you!
Ps: I took my time for these but not sure how much time should have been spend on each drawing? Could other students maybe share their average time per drawing ? It would be helpful because I felt like I was a bit on the slow side

This assignment was quite fun to do! It definitely made me better at freehanding boxes of different sizes in 3D space.

I chose to only go with the 9 squares one because it seemed to be the most interesting to me in terms of creative possibilites. Freehanded all of them, the first ones with pencil sketches first and the last ones directly in ink, which forced me to be very aware of each stroke I put on the paper while I was thinking of the shapes in my head. This was definitely a great brain exercice, felt really like solving puzzles to me. Very enjoyable!
These sets of drawings ya came up look all really nice and clean looking. Also super fun examples of how ya rotated and re-arranged each cubes around onto the new forms as well.

Here are mine. I found that some of these were much easier to come up with multiple layouts that others. And some layouts took a lot more thinking to get right. There were a couple with the 9 squares that took a few tries to get the way I imagined them.

That was an awesome bonus video!! Thank you @Stan Prokopenko and @Marshall Vandruff for providing all these informations and advices in one place, I appreciate the work and thought you put into this! I took lots of notes and added all those Draftsmen videos and books you mentionned at the top of my backlog x)

Here are both my pencil sharpeners back from the form study in otho form. I notice now after scanning I got confused at some point: when I was looking at the mechanical one. I could see the interior sides of the top handles and I used a bit of one point perspective for these but now I understand I should have just drawn them as "flat" squares instead. I'm planning to do a second sheet with the other items I did in the form study so I may correct it at the same time.
Redid the mechanical pencil sharpener and drew a few more objects as well. I chose to go with tools this time because I wanted to train myself to be more precise vs eyeballing things like I usually do. Hope someday my progeny will be proud of those lines! x)
