When putting a sphere in a box it might look like it fits perfectly but actually it's too big
When fitting a circle into a square, check this: 1. The circle touches the midpoint of each side 2. The minor axis crosses right through the center
The best way to place a cylinder in perspective is to draw a box first and carve it out of it
The minor axis of an ellipse divides it in half and also is the center line of any cylinder. Use it as a guide
From the front and side a cylinder looks flat, I always draw it slightly tilted so the figure feels 3d
This is how I check if a cube is correct, make sure all the lines intersect at a point
"I'll draw more once I have more time" is a lie. I tracked every drawing session for a year. A month with daily classes: 58h My emptiest month: 59h A lack of free time isn't your problem, a lack of a good project is.

How I made my drawing habit addictive: 1. Find a habit you already can't skip, even a bad one. 2. Ask yourself why you can't skip it. 3. Do the same thing in your drawing routine. I track every gym session to watch numbers go up, so I started doing the same for drawing hours.
