thank you so much for replying and thanking me, it means a lot to me.

Of course converging improved over time. In the grand scheme of things, 250 boxes isn't actually that much, so nobody is perfect at it after the challenge. The important thing is that you understand the concept, accuracy comes automatically with practice. And don't worry about beeing slow: everyone goes at their own timeline, depending on their mood and other obligations life throws our way, so as long as you draw daily I think your way faster than other who do sprints of a week of extreme productivity and then burn out and have to restart. When I did the challenge I also only did a page (3-4 boxes) per day, so don't worry about the pace, even if it can be frustrating.

Maybe include a box in your warmup, or every second warmup or so. I kinda neglected that and got really out of practice and then struggled when I had to draw them again for the cylinder challenge lol

regarding digital: do whatever you feel comfortable in. It's better to do the course digital than not at all, so don't feel pressured!

Thank you so much for the detailed critique, it is so helpful to have someone else point out your mistakes and explain how to do it better, I will keep the mentioned points in mind.

I really struggle with texture, so your tips are super appreciated. I will look at lesson 2 again and maybe redo some exercises. Is there a way to get critique on exercises without doing the full lesson?

Thank you again

Aw, thank you so much. I'm really glad my feedback helped you.

Most of the stuff I pointed out were things I did wrong myself (hatching, repeating lines, the graphics were included in my critique back then as well), so this was really nostalgic and enjoyable to review. It's ok to be discuraged and frustrated sometimes and some days it feels like you regress and are unable to do things you were able to the day before, but I think it's better to do stuff regularily over a long time then not at all. Though I prob shouldn't talk so big, because I'm currently in kind of a strut (bc I had to stop DaB due to studiing for exam week) and it's so hard to get back into a it after a break, I hate it. I think consistency really is the key here, even if it's just a short warmup every day. So let's hope we'll both be able to find a routine that works for us.

Also thank you for responding and thanking me. A lot of people don't, so it made me super happy.

Hi there,

congratulations on finishing lesson 1 and thanks for submitting, I'll be reviewing your homework. I hope my feedback helps you.

Superimposed lines

Your lines are straight and confident and are fraying on just one end. It also looks like you repeated them 8 times and drew from your shoulder. Good job.

You have the tendency to slightly curve your lines, so keep that in mind and try to curve them in the opposite direction to 'rewire' your brain what a straight line is. I'd add this exercise to your warmup to improve accuracy.

ghosted lines

Nicely done. Your lines are straight and confidently executed. You they still curve a little, especially towards the ends of the line. That's not a bad thing per se and it'll get better the more you draw, don't fokus your training on it though. Always remember that in DaB confidence goes over accuracy.

ghosted planes

Good job. You took your time and drew confident and not-wobbly lines. It also looks like you ghosted them thorougly and drew from your shoulder. I'd also add this to your warmup to increase accuracy.

tables of ellipses

You drew confident lines and drew through your ellipses twice. Your ellipses fit snugly next to each other and vary in size, orientation and degree. Good job. I'd add this to your warm up as well to improve accuracy. What helps me is to take my time ghosting them, this way I get closer to the shape I want.

ellipses in planes

Your ellipses are smooth and have an even shape. They usually touch all the borders, nicely done. I'd also add this to your warmup.

funnels

Your ellipses are nicely aligned to the minor axis and fit snugly inside the funnel. You even varied their degree. Good job. Make sure you only draw through your ellipse twice and not 5+ times, instead ghost them thouroughly.

plotted perspective

You didn't really follow the instructions, but your boxes aren't distorted and it looks like you understand the concept of horizon lines and vanishing points, so I'd say it's fine. Make sure to really read the instructions and follow them as close as possible.

rough perspective

You used one point perspective and all the lines that go off into the distance converge towards the vanishing point. Make sure all horizontal lines run perfectly parallel to the horizon and all vertical lines run perfectly perpendicular to the horizon.

Your lines look a little rushed, so really take your time with exercises like this, you will learn so much more. Ghost your lines thoroughly to the vanishing point and don't rush this step. Speed comes naturally the more you do it (when I first did this exercise it took me ~10 min per box!). I'd also add this exercise to your warmup to improve patience and accuracy.

rotated boxes

Your boxes are snugly next to each other, you drew through them and actually rotated them. Well done. The only thing I would like to point out is that your hatching lines are scribbled. When you hatch, treat the lines like any other line and ghost it and then execute it confidently.

organic perspective

Your boxes are freely rotated in space and get smaller the further away you get. It also looks like you ghosted your lines. You drew quite few boxes though, so next time look at the example and do about as many as there. Otherwise good job here als well.

Note for the warmups: You don't have to do all the "marked" exercises in every warm up. Do 2-3 in one warm up and in the next one switch them around and do others.

You did a really good job completing this lesson and I think you understood all the concepts. Feel free to move onto the 250 box challenge.

I wish someone had reminded me of this back then, so here's some (rather general) stuff I learned. I hope it helps you in some way:

• Remember the 50% rule. This challenge takes a lot of time and effort and you'll burn out/lose motivation if you don't do something for yourself as well.

• You didn't do this, but I still want to mention this: don't erase wrong lines/draw correct ones over top. If your line is incorrect, mark the correct ending point and draw the rest of your lines correct (you don't learn anything correcting lines, so it just wastes time)

• Take your time with the exercises, especially the box challenge. You'll learn a lot more if you take your time. DaB in general is a marathon and not a sprint. It really helped me to set my goal to "draw x minutes each day" instead of "draw x boxes a day". The amount of boxes you manage during that time will increase the further you get. It also helped me to do DaB at a specific time slot each day.

Hi there,

congratulations on finishing the 250-Box-Challenge and thanks for submitting, I'll be reviewing your homework. I hope my feedback helps you.

Your work reveals that you had put a lot of focus, energy and time in completing the challenge, even if it was over a very long period of time. Your work came out beautiful, well done!

I structured this critique as follows:

the praises (what you did well) and where you went off and should keep an eye on in the future. In the end I'll give some general pointers/reminders, so you don't forget them

THE PRAISES ( The job you did well in the challenge)

You always drew through your forms and understand how they sit in 3D. Nicely done

You did a great job checking for your mistakes by checking the boxes convergences by extending the lines always from the viewer. You identified where it went wrong and worked on it.

You are able to construct the boxes of various types with different orientation, proportion and foreshadowing with good amounts of convergences. So hats off for that!

I can say that you are building a sense of confidence and patience in drawing your boxes by plotting down the starting and end points of the lines before executing, so thats good job!

If you are concerned about accuracy, I will advise you to leave it there for some time and prioritize confidence first. After we build some confidence, we can work on some accuracy as well.We prioritize confidence and draw lines from our shoulder without thinking about any accuracy there. Our lines will look solid and more appealing, even though they are in inaccurate. Also don't repeat inaccurate lines and try to correct them. It just wastes time where you don't learn anything.

WHERE IT WENT SLIGHTLY OFF? ( Where you should keep an eye on)

In this part I will just point out where it went slightly off. In the coming part I will explain how to avoid them and how you can improve them. I made this part because it will remind us where we are going wrong and it will thereby make us conscious about our mistakes while drawing those boxes.

Of course you had improved throughout the challenge but there are times where some of the set of lines converges at a faster rates than the others resulting in converging in pairs. this point you can definitely work on, in your warm ups.

According to the rule of perspective, all the parallel lines in the 3D world (real world) will appear to converge to a specific VP (vanishing point) on a 2d page. SSo what we can say is that our parallel lines should always converge as a set and not in pairs. They will never diverge from the VP as this will break the rule of perspective. So next time, instead of drawing parallel lines in the boxes, try to consciously think that the parallel lines in the 3d world of box will always converge to a specific vp. These vps can either be staying inside the page (creating more dramatic/foreshadowed boxes) or outside of it (creating shallow boxes) https://imgur.com/mWLlnYl

It's completely and totally normal to have the back corner line slightly off compared to the rest. You should try and work on those as well. They have significantly improved at end of your work, so nice job!

In this challenge, we are estimating where our lines going to converge to a point. As we are humans, it is almost impossible to perfectly estimate where our lines will going to converge thereby resulting in an error. This error will continue to accumulate as we construct the box freely rotated in space. Finally this accumulated error will be thrown to the back corner. So its pretty normal to have the inner back corner come out pretty off.

I want to take a look at this info here; https://i.imgur.com/8PqQLE0.png

In this image we can know that how each line will behave relating to the position from its neighbouring edges and the VP. If the distance between the internal edges and external edges gets reduce more and more they will eventually become parallel to one and another. Alternatively if the distance between the internal corner and the external grow more and more the internal line will also converge. You can also try and start from the back corner if the box is narrower. https://imgur.com/a/DHlA3Jh

These diagram can be pretty hard to understand at first, so if you don't understand it, don't get frustrated, keep reading it from time to time while practicing regularly and it will click eventually.

When you hatch the face of the box facing towards the viewer, make sure to really take your time doing so and ghosted them thoroughly. Same goes for adding line weight around the silouehette, which I would highly advise you to do in our warmups. I didn't do it in mine back then and I still struggle adding line weight, so I wish I would have started sooner with easier subjects.

As far as I can see, you drew digitally. I was really tempted to do the same thing but I decided to follow the course and do it traditionally with fineliner and I think it really improved my confidence. I was really scared of permanent marks and now it's almost weird to draw digitally because I'm so used to thinking before drawing.

I also noticed you sometimes redrew wrong lines. Don't do that! You don't learn anything by repeating the line, so it wastes time you could have spent learning. Instead just mark the correct ending point and use that one for the rest of your lines.

SOME GENERAL STUFF I WISH SOMEONE HAD REMINDED ME BACK THEN

I would highly advise you to include boxes in your warmups and construct 1-2 boxes daily. After some time you will see how your boxes get better and better.

Remember the 50% rule. This challenge takes a lot of time and effort and you'll burn out/lose motivation if you don't do something for yourself as well.

Take your time with the exercises. You'll learn a lot more if you take your time. DaB in general is a marathon and not a sprint. It really helped me to set my goal to "draw x minutes each day" instead of "draw x boxes a day". The amount of boxes you manage during that time will increase the further you get. It also helped me to do DaB at a specific time slot each day.

Make sure to do 5 reviews for every lesson/challenge you upload and get critique on! I know this sounds like a waste of time, but this entire community is built on this review-exchange system. I hope you learn a lot from my critique and you should give the same chance to others.

I have prewritten texts for every lesson and challenge and just go through every point and look if the person did it right or wrong and change the text accordingly. It only takes me 10 minutes max per critique! And you actually learn a lot, because you refresh the knowledge and don't forget certain aspects and I found that I have an easier time spotting my own mistakes in my warmups. So it doesn't only help this community and enables it to be free of charge, but it also helps you.

We all know this challenge was very intimidating. Constructing 250 boxes arbitrarily rotated in 3D is hard and yet you did a great job by keeping persistent till the end with lots of effort, focus, energy and time, well done! Your submission reveals that you did take time to read through the lesson materials, followed the instructions and executed to your best of your ability.

Feel free to move on to lesson 2 and good luck in your artistic journey.

You are able to construct the boxes of various types with different orientation and proportion. So hats off for that! The only thing I didn't see a lot of was foreshadowing (like seen in big objects like buildings for example, where the vanishing point is a lot closer and not off somewhere in the distance). I'd definetly experiment a bit with that in the future, it really helped me get a better grasp on perspective, so add it to your warmup.

I can say that you are building a sense of confidence and patience in drawing your boxes by plotting down the starting and end points of the lines before executing, so thats good job!

Hi there,

congratulations on finishing lesson 1 and thanks for submitting, I'll be reviewing your homework. I hope my feedback helps you.

Superimposed lines

Your lines are straight and confident. It also looks like you repeated them 8 times and drew from your shoulder. Good job.

Your lines are fraying on both ends though. Make sure not to rush and start at the same point, so they are only fraying at one point. I'd add this to your warmup.

ghosted lines

Nicely done. Your lines are straight and confidently executed. I noticed you repeated/redrew a wrong line, please don't do that. We don't learn anything by redrawing wrong things, so it's better to move on and continue the exercise (if the line is way off, maybe mark the correct ending point and work using that one), otherwise we waste time.

ghosted planes

Good job. You took your time and drew confident and not-wobbly lines. It also looks like you ghosted them thorougly and drew from your shoulder. I'd also add this to your warmup to increase accuracy.

tables of ellipses

You drew confident lines and drew through your ellipses twice. Your ellipses fit snugly next to each other and vary in size, orientation and degree. Good job. I'd add this to your warm up as well to improve accuracy.

ellipses in planes

Your ellipses are smooth and have an even shape. They usually touch all the borders, nicely done. I'd also add this to your warmup.

funnels

Your ellipses are nicely aligned to the minor axis and fit snugly inside the funnel. You even varied their degree. Good job.

plotted perspective

Your boxes aren't distorted and it looks like you understand the concept of horizon lines and vanishing points. The only 'bad' thing I'd like to point out is that you did very few boxes. Try to follow the instructions as accurately as possible and do around the same amount as in the example.

rough perspective

You used one point perspective and all the lines that go off into the distance converge towards the vanishing point. Make sure all horizontal lines run perfectly parallel to the horizon and all vertical lines run perfectly perpendicular to the horizon. Some of your lines are a bit wobbly here, so make sure to thouroughly ghost them and execute them confidently (always remember: in DaB confidence goes over accuracy! the latter comes naturally the more you draw).

I'd also add this to your warmup to improve accuracy (over time).

rotated boxes

Your boxes are snugly next to each other, you drew through them and actually rotated them. Well done. And again: please don't repeat wrong lines. It wastes time and in this case makes the drawing really messy and hard to see.

organic perspective

Your boxes are freely rotated in space and get smaller the further away you get. It also looks like you ghosted your lines. Make sure you ghost your hatching lines as well. Good job.

Note for the warmups: You don't have to do all the "marked" exercises in every warm up. Do 2-3 in one warm up and in the next one switch them around and do others.

Don't worry about imgur, I feel like it's kinda buggy lately? I've been trying to upload my submission yesterday and the upload failed all the time...

I structured this critique as follows:

You always drew through your forms and understand how they sit in 3D. Nicely done

You did a great job checking for your mistakes by checking the boxes convergences by extending the lines always from the viewer. You even wrote down litte notes and worked on what you did wrong.

You are able to construct the boxes of various types with different orientation, proportion and foreshadowing with good amounts of convergences. So hats off for that!

You hatched the face of the box facing towards the viewer. In the beginning the hatching lines arerather wobbly, but get straighter and more confident in the later boxes. Make sure you take your time and ghosted them thoroughly.

I don't think you added line weight around the silouehette. It's not a must (I didn't do it either), but it really helps make the form look more cohesive and helps a lot in future lessons (at least I still struggle with line weight and wish I had done it earlier).

WHERE IT WENT SLIGHTLY OFF? ( Where you should keep an eye on)

In this part I will just point out where it went slightly off. In the coming part I will explain how to avoid them and how you can improve them. I made this part because it will remind us where we are going wrong and it will thereby make us conscious about our mistakes while drawing those boxes.

SOME GENERAL STUFF I WISH SOMEONE HAD REMINDED ME BACK THEN

I would highly advise you to include boxes in your warmups and construct 1-2 boxes daily (make sure to take your time, plot and ghost thoroughly and add line weight). They are a really important and basic part in construction and we all need the extra practice. After some time you will see how your boxes get better and better.

Remember the 50% rule. This challenge takes a lot of time and effort and you'll burn out/lose motivation if you don't do something for yourself as well.

you uploaded your lesson 1 stuff not your 250 box challenge stuff lol maybe either change the uploaded link or the rating

Thank you so much for the detailed critique, it means a lot to me.

I kinda struggled with the handles of the wardrobe, but I didn't think to shape boxes first, so thank you for that tip. I'll definetly incorporate it as well as better planning my curves.

I thought filling in areas with solid black was mostly for separating forms, which is why I used it quite a lot, so thank you so much for clearing that up. I'll keep it in mind for future exercises.

It's hard to spot your own mistakes, so thank you again for taking the time and critiquing me
