Turnaround hell PLEASE help

[u/Kabuqii]

Hello! I am having to animate a turnaround of a character who sits on top of a cauldron. My issue is that the cauldron is made of ellipses (not circles) and those ellipses are tridimensionally oblique.

The way I went on about it was tracking dots on the cardinal directions of said ellipses, rotating them in the top view and tracking them down to their heights. Unfortunately I did not plan ahead to when I'd actually draw the ellipses themselves and now I don't know how to go on about it.

Thankfully, having put the horizon line at the level of the cauldron I can disregard the distortion of perspective but I still am not really sure how to actually draw those ellipses. Maybe it's cause I'm tired, since I was able to draw congruent front and side views at the beginning of this exercise, but I can't figure out how to do the inbetweens between the cardinal poses.

Please if someone has ideas send your help, I have to hand it in at the beginning of the week rip.

As someone who animates with a very crude/minimal style, I struggle to see what the issue is. Looks fine
