Great point Walent, and it should be used for anything. Simple objects and figures alike.
My grain of salt : you should try and describe the forms (not only the shapes) you see in 3D space before you actually start painting, going through the form, really trying to figure out in your mind it's volume, orientation and so on. Be it by lines or in your mind actually.
That's what I'm talking about when I say forms, Forms, FORMS ! xD
Trying to be more analytical.

It's actually then very much easier to render and light those forms as you actually KNOW what they are -which is sometimes not the case when you describe an object-

Here are a few examples




I never have time to type these in on sundays events, kinda frustrating, hopefully you'll get what I meant then.

Cheers :p
