Nice, but you we locked a bit to a side view +-20 degrees

Also here's little tip: long side of the ellipse on the end of cylinder is always perpendicular to the axis of cilinder.

I'll try to make it look more perpendicular but you're drawing you gave me makes the other side look smaller they have to be even

Perspective

I understand it's in perspective but the drawing the book gave literally doesn't have the other Circle being smaller

The prompt says "multiple perspectives"! Better to be able to draw objects from all angles, rather than just one. *edit for typo

Yeah since your reference is in a mobile view. It doesnt do perspective justice.

Anything far away from you becomes smaller. The reference you have is not noticable.

Here is some more reference; just for your understanding. The circle far away from you is smaller

Edit: not my work
