As the main assignment, the one involving rulers and set squares, I decided to go with the band logo that got me revering band logos in general, the Metallica logo. The actual logo has letters rotated in 3 point perspective but for this one I decided to extrude just their flat version. I tried to be use exact angle measurements for a while but I quickly ran out of patience and just eyeballed and winged the last 20% or so.

Instead of people's names, my subject matter for this assignment was my favourite studytime distraction topic in school ergo metal band names. I tried to explore a range of font styles in order to get sharp angles and gradual contours, and everything in between. The diagonal nature of the Judas Priest logo yielded especially interesting results. Sorry in advance about the scratch-offs...

Here is my first one. A bit ambitious. Thank you @Ishaan Kumar for the idea. perspective on Typing paper, pencil & Sharpee Marker. I do not own the copy right. so Lars, Please do not sue me...

I really love this Melted Pancake Method! It is really great for space concepting. It brings together structure and intuition, both parts of creation perfectly balanced. I will definitely keep exploring and stretching the scale, forms, and compositional value. I am so excited with this method! Thank you teachers!

Here's my attempt. I had to do a few rounds of making and deleting, because I got picky about composition and shape and all the things that Phil was talking about not getting hung up on. Finally, I arrived at a zone that I thought I could work with, and it also helped that I went away on holiday for a week after laying down the base pancakes. The process became much smoother after I came back from holiday, and in fact, became more engaging and the detailing process got me a lot more involved.

I was waiting to see the Metallica logo appear when you spoke of extruded band names. I would've scored a lot better at school had I not being drawing that logo into every notebook margin and etching it into every class table. Now it feels like I'm returning to it with added knowledge of the how and why of it. Almost like returning to a MetroidVania style game level after having skilled up by playing a lot of other levels in between. Looking forward to this assignment!

Alright here are my attempts. I still fight the need to get it 'right' instead of just getting into the drawing but following this course has helped that feeling subside considerably. It has also really helped to train my brain to go from the big, simple forms down to the details.

I was in a park, drawing, when a wee spider plopped onto my hand. I tried to draw it as best as I could, and then I thought of turning it into a vehicle. I even gave it a corny name and logo. I've only managed to get the front and side orthos and I already see problems with it. Haven't had the courage to go into bottom, top and three-quarters orthogonal views but I guess I should pluck up the courage to do them.

A bunch of boxes, some from blobs, others not. While it wasn't easy, last year's box exercises from the Proko Basics course helped. Nothing impressive, but it wasn't as challenging as the first time around. I'm hoping this means some improvement, however slow. I so badly want to improve my perspective skills so I can observe and draw forms better. Until then, one box at a time! One thing I've struggled with the blob approach is that when I start with blobs, my contour lines are off. As mentioned by someone else in the comments, contours are acutally ellipses..and I've realized that I don't really know how to draw them in perspective according to the kind of box I'm picturing. So drawing boxes straight-up (and not from blobs) feels easier to me. Is this something that I'll get better at once we learn ellipses? Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks

I tried the blob approach to drawing objects in front of me. The blob isn't that visible but it's there, I swear. The first object is a jar of rusk, the other 2 may be me getting slightly ahead of this course and myself and drawing 2 vehicles at an automobile exhibition I visited.
