Thanks Chris,

That does help. Once you've pointed these things out, I'm not sure how I missed them. I'm in a drawing class now that has given me a new way to measure and my accuracy is improving. Just have to get faster at it. I keep hearing over and over again that I need to work on form. I think It's finally starting to sink in for me.

As far as the lighting goes, I found that setting up a chair a couple of feet inside my (open) garage, perpendicular to the door, is working well. A small window to the left of the model gives just a slight light edge to the shadow side.
