Being a Noob at Drawing

(Inspired by Agot)I like to try a bit of everything so last term I tried Still Life sketching so don't hate :) 
I'm really bad at drawing outlines and rough sketches and so I love shadows and basically shading because I depend on them to make my drawings well, whole and solid? I like shiny dark objects the best but I like drawing glass as well cause you have to make it seem transparent and sort of thick but kind of thin, you have to show the shape of the inside of the vase without really drawing much of it. 

ANYWAAAY, I'm not done with Still Life but I can't wait to move on and draw naked people. Ha!

Attempt to draw different.. errr material.

I swear this one looks better and shinier in person.

next attempt: different texture

that's supposed to be an apple, a plum, an orange, a lemon and an egg (which looks abnormal). I enjoyed drawing the plum the most trying to get it to look shiny and smooth :D

and that's supposed to be a stone (that ended up looking like bread) and some shiny, reflecting pot (one of my favorites)

Next is metal-y shiny objects

that's a faucet and part of the sink, a kettle and cutlery(this one's my favorite of all cause it took so darn long to get the spoon and fork right)

and now a combination of materials

Not the best I know, I had a problem drawing the wheels. I have no idea how to make them look rubber-y. So yea
