I don't know what period of time you did these studies. I guess not in the time you are posting them; changing up topics you study is a very good idea that is supported by research, BUT try and consciously apply studies you do to the more imaginative exercises. Studying cubes and forms in space are mostly wasted if you don't apply this to your more imaginative pieces with intent.Cross section what you mean by that?
Draw them in 3d. You don't need value for them to read correctly. That's an excuse
Do cross sections of the drawings in the first instance if you can't do it without...but show us the form in line.
The picture below is how i THINK in term of how i approch drawing my figure.I drew alot of side view so far and i end up under representing my knowledge of volume.One of the problem i see is that i skip the volume stage but i still think about volume all the time.The reason i skip it is because if i do it i have to erase and i don't own erase that do good job at erasing i either have a big eraser or the eraser at the end of a pencil i would need a soft eraser.I think i been mainly avoiding drawing volume because it easier to draw them in digital because you can simply hide them in a separate layer and draw on top of that layer afterward.I think i remember now what i didn't buy that should have bought a none photoblue pencil so that i can do those construction and than i simply go in photoshop and delete the blue color and voila no need to spend time erasing.One other thing i could do instead of worrying to much about draw clean is restate my line.But i think the most important thing i should have done is show that i understand the concept such as wire wrapping in those side view to show that i understand there volume.
