hey just wanted to say your shapes look really rhythmic, awesome job.

Hey, congrats on this. I recently finished this challenge too and it took me weeks.
Your line weights improved over time which is great.
You did self checking like measuring vanish point distance around box 50 which is smart.
Definitely improved a lot over the boxes, including confidence in lines.
Only thing I will mention is that sometimes one vanishing point off. Sometimes the closer edge is not parallel enough, it reaches the vanishing point before the farther edge. This causes the nonparallel lines. Something that helped me was starting thinking of connecting all the edges to a vanishing point and that was the goal, I started with 1 VP, then 2, then 3. Made dots all over my page and that improved my accuracy.
Otherwise congrats, this is by far not an easy goal and takes mad commitment.
Thanks so much Scylla! I was watching tutorial vids and your videos helped me with my vanishing point calculations. So thanks again!
I will rewatch the vids about line weight next.
Onwards to lesson 2!
Thank you, I really like how in depth you went into this. Having a critical review like this is great and I will do my best to fix my bad habits early.
I will work on my automatic reinforce and make more of an effort for the next assignment.
I updated the imgur post and added an additional page with the missing rough perspective as the first page.
Thanks again!
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
