Are you aware of the concept of wrapping line?For example on a cylinder hatching would start to compress near the hedge to indicate turning of the form i think you want to avoid the evenness of the line making unless you want to imply flatness.

Here an example by some master.I think it would be a nice practice if you feel like your up to the challenge.Note also how the line is thicker in the shadow and how the fill some value in between the line.

Hey dark — I've definitely seen artists use this in drawings, like Albrecht Durer and I do like the approach, I try to do it where it makes sense for me, sometimes I don't want to spend time on a certain part so just do some flat cross-hatching to add tone. I did another study and then some drawings from imagination from yesterday.
