looking great ^^ if I can offer one more piece of advice for the perspective stuff - start training yourself to draw smooth freehand ellipses, they become really crucial for the later stuff in that book, and the how to render book relies on them a lot too. The exercises on page 19 and the video that goes with it shows a great way to practice. It's taken me 2 months of doing them everyday and only now can I just about draw decent ellipses reliably (ones that fit into boxes perfectly on a minor axis) (about 70% of the time anyway). Start that training right now! It's frustrating if you get to the later parts of the book and can't do them.
