kikindaface - Thanks man! I'm finally feeling like my sketches are getting closer to where I want them to be. I just need to do a lot more random sketches in my sketchbooks to get there but I've been slacking on that!
janvonfrosta - Yea I was having a lot of trouble making them readable while at the same time focusing on design. It's amazing how such small thumbnail silhouettes can be so difficult.
Jaik - Thank you for the kind comments. I'm currently really busy with courses I'm taking so right now all of my free drawing time is focused towards learning perspective. Even with organic shapes like animals I feel like my perspective is hampering me so I want to get that to an acceptable level before I tackle building my visual library on a regular basis. I hope to join you soon though!
MrFrenik - Scott Robertson is next up for me. I'm really eager to study his material the most out of all the perspective stuff out there because I feel it's the most applicable.

I forgot to update my sketchbook last week! I need to get in the habit of doing it!
I've been working a bit more on perspective as you can see below. When I got to the plotting the plan view it felt really tedious and I couldn't see much value in how I could apply this to regular illustrations and concept art. I should have skipped it and went on to the other material but I still have a completionist attitude towards art that I need to get rid of.
And here is some other miscellaneous stuff I did. Top two for online things I'm taking and last is a self portrait. A friend told me I made myself look like a transvestite... that's not good!
