added comment inProject - Shade a Sphere
Asked for help
I wasn't happy with my first attempt so I did it a few more times. One thing I struggled with was shading the halftones on the light area, mostly because of how much pressure I was using with my pencil. I switched my grip on the pencil which helped a bit. On the other hand, I feel good about the shadow area, especially the occlusion shadow and reflected light.

try with alot of lines smushed together with same intensity, width, height, tone and value. like in line segment they gave us practise works or warm ups, do warm ups of shading evenly, or putting lines evenly in starting. than try doing this same excercise with different intensities, than move to filling in shapes with one tone, than 2 values but with high contrast, do it until you are satisfied with contrast. In end add up all of them together, in starting it helps using only values from 6 to 10 or 0 to 6 or 4 to 8. but if I wanted to say in one word you have less experience of controlling pencil, you need more experience that's it.

I found this really useful in learning in how to utilize different values based on the composition.
I’ve got some big news! My family just welcomed our third child! It was a bit of an early surprise, but we’re all doing great.
Basics students - With this change, the next three months might run a little differently. I’ve built up a backlog of content to keep things moving, but there might still be an occasional gap. If a week goes by without new material, just know it’s temporary. Things will get back to normal soon.
Thanks for your patience as I adjust to life with three kids and gives some attention to my little one. In the meantime, keep practicing, revisit older lessons, or share your progress with the community.
I appreciate all of you. Thanks for being such a supportive group!

This was a great assignment! I really enjoyed learning how to observe values in different pieces. I used three values for each thumbnail and struggled with choosing the right one but I'm glad to have gained a stronger understanding and thought process behind values.

Using more than one pencil was definitely a challenge, but I enjoyed learning how to pay attention to the amount of pressure put down and filling in as much as possible of each square.

What makes the box look twisted is using the center line to sell the idea. I did a couple of examples to show you what I mean.
So merging the center line with the sides kind of? How do I make the center line so that it fits both sides? And how do the planes line up then? I tried imagining the bottom plane twisted and lining them up but that didn't seem to work.
Sorry if I'm misinterpreting. Trying to create a twisted box makes my brain hurt and I'm doing my best to understand it

This was really challenging but fun. The meat grinder was definitely the hardest for me.
I could really use some guidance on twisting the boxes. No matter what I do I just can't seem to get them right. I marked all the ones I wanted to twist with an X above them. If anyone could provide some feedback I'd really appreciate it. Thank you
