Hi, Feldspar! Congrats on finishing 250 box challenge!

You shown great improvement:

  • you lines became much more confident and precise;

  • boxes grew in size, got more variety in size, proportion and orientation;

  • you started from drawing boxes in drastic perspective only but added will shallow one too.

I see you didn't use hatching lines or lineweight which is acceptable for this challenge but I would recommend doing them in warm ups as it's both additional practice (more lines to draw!) and necessary thing in future lessons to separate forms from each other, for example in Form Intersection exercise in Lesson 2.

Your back corner is still a little off which is normal at it's a result of small mistakes accumulated during planning but it will for sure become better with practice.

Also I would recommend to make extending lines at least twice as long as the edges they extend.

Overall it looks like you got what the 250 boxes is about so good luck with Lesson 2!

Next Steps:

Continue with lesson 2.

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
