My second attempt at drawing a tank. I think it turned out much better than the first.
The most important thing I've learnt from the demo is that it's okay if the ellipse does not actually conform exactly to the points I've constructed in the box, as long as the angle of the ellipses are consistent with one another.

My attempts after watching the demo. The tractor obviously needs work, but surprisingly, the truck doesn't seem too bad.

This one kind of stumped me, not gonna lie. I'm not sure how to draw the correct ellipse for the boxes I've chosen, and the resulting vehicles all look kind of funky. Maybe I'll revisit this after watching the demo.
Will try level 2 after getting the hang of level 1 first.

Final set of hands after watching the critique video. I've definitely grown more comfortable drawing boxes in 3D, but they're far from perfect. Coming up with the hands from imagination is still really difficult for me. But oh well, on to the next lesson.

Level 2 versions of a new set of hands. Really one of the more challenging projects so far; I've spent around 45 minutes for one hand. But I found out that first placing the big box of the palm then seeing how the connected boxes' edges relate to it, and so on, helps be build the hand gradually.
I think I still need a lot of practice to get comfortable with rotating hands freely though.

Here's another set of level 1 hands. There are still some proportional errors, but I think it's improved from my first attempt. The side view posed quite a challenge though, since I wasn't sure to just draw a single rectangle or a 3D box since most of the hand was side view.

These are my predemo attempts. I think they came out okay, but the boxes can probably be more refined and sharp. Also I guess I accidentally tapered the ends of the fingers to make it fit the photos more.
Level 2 was really hard and even though I managed to somehow come up with those hands, I'm not sure if they are following the same pose as the original reference. Any critiques or feedback are welcome!

Drawing these boxes sure brought back memories of when I did DrawABox...I think most of the boxes look okay, but the convergence of some angles might need work. But that's what the warmup is for I suppose.

Drew a pig but I can see the proportions are a little off. But the X trick is pretty useful, will definitely use it more in the future.

Here's the last set of practices before moving on to 3pp. I definitely feel like my skills are drawing head boxes have improved, but there's still much room for improvement. But I'm definitely done with drawing heads for the moment.
