Proportions are definitely a issue for me and also when the perspective is not that dramatic it's hard to stick to the grid.

I am very glad to see this video because I am using what we learned so far to tackle my weakness, which is the skull in perspective, from reference and imagination. You mentioned drawing what we love and I don’t love anvils and I don’t love rooms, so skulls, figures and churches it is😭. I couldn’t get the cranium in perspective when I started out last year so I’ve been dodging them since. I didn’t know what axes were, to be fair, or how to control them. Now I can direct it more and it is fun learning how different shapes shift as the angle changes, sometimes in ways that you don’t expect (looking at you, the hellspawn form known as “eye sockets”). Anyway these were warmups, but I want to do 50 skulls like we did with the rooms, hopefully I can get them a little closer to a standard I’ll accept for now :3
Have you tried tom-fox's anatomy book!,his stuff helps to break anatomy down into simple chiseled forms and how to put them inside boxes(it's like simpllified process that kim-jung-gi used) and tom was once marshall's student too if i rememeber correctly!
he did a lot of skull simplications too that can help you out👍

Ahhh this is going to be an ugly mess, since it’s a lot of experimenting with severe timers without dwelling to fix errors. But I’m posting it to inoculate myself against fear of failure. I started with rooms but I can’t do 50 rooms without withering inside. So I am doing church interiors/exteriors which I love (blame my medieval history degree). Atm testing what low/high HLs feel like. Anything to avoid rooms…but it’s still familiarising me with the horizon level and I feel changed again. going to attempt some irl church drawing soon now I’m braver and can see HLs differently. :3 also attached 2 gifs I found very helpful

First attempt at changing one-point perspective very slightly...

Didn't expect my drawing to get a video!
thx marshall😊
Your name will now be remembered for years to come!
Seriously though, thank you for this! This is something I have been struggling, and getting the technical know-how is slowly building my confidence.

Wow! Although I haven't been doing the assignments (I've been preoccupied by other courses, biting off more than I can chew), I've at least still been following the videos to see where the course has been progressing. Although these sketches aren't as strictly planned with X-Y-Z as in the video, I've been thinking about twisting forms lately. I guess maybe it would be appropriate to share here?

I'm finally understanding how people do those boxes around the sphere thing and the arrows were pretty fun to draw aswell!(also added a warmup page toom ust for funsies)

I think I’ve got the gist of the assignment,but the proportions are all over the place(at least in the initial forms),i also made a few silly mistakes,like drawing an octagon instead of a hexagon,constructing hexagon in a wrong way,getting too caught up in different angles rather than focusing on understanding their axes and so on....
I could’ve been a little less messy with the line work and overall presentation 😅
That said,I really enjoyed the assignment nonetheless! 😁
