thanks dude, the idea behind drawing the cubes was to get as good at drawing simple 3d shapes as I can for construction purposes, if I can't draw a proper looking cube or cylinder or rotate them in my mind then it'll make construction more difficult, repetitive yeah but I think it's the kinda thing to best get nailed down first before going into more complex construction and according to smrr it's already helping my figures, and I am still having trouble rotating the 3 point perspective cubes and i'm trying to keep them as close to being squares as possible, also still having issues drawing certain positions with the cylinders.
I was'nt using horizon lines for the cubes but I was trying to keep the basic perspective in mind and I did do a few horizon lines before erasing them on the ones I got stuck on.
I've done alot of it though so as said i'm gonna take a break and work on more figure drawing.
Oh yeah I mainly learned how to draw heads from that vid(don't think his method for the extreme tilts work for me personally though), i'll go over it again for a few days and apply it to some imaginary heads.

Cool work on the ref/memory studies, i'll have to try that sometime, looks like a good excercise, when i've done them before i've only copied then drawn it from memory once rather then several times.
