Hello! Allow me to take a look at your boxes.

An important thing to note is that boxes drawn in 3 point perspective will always have their lines converge. Some of your first boxes have parallel extending lines. The good thing is that there's visible improvement in your later boxes. It looks like you understood that the extending lines need to face away from the viewer as well.

Your line work is really great! Remember to continue drawing your lines with confidence. One thing I would suggest is adding lineweight to the contour of your boxes to make them more 3 dimensional. It looks like your boxes have some variety in sizes and angles as well.

Overall you've done a wonderful job with this challenge. Keep it up!

Hello! Let me see what we have here.

Most of your extended lines are parallel. These boxes are meant to be done in 3 perspective, so their extending lines must always converge. It is somewhat difficult without a horizon line, but you can approximate. When drawing a box, try preparing your converges as if you're doing the ghosting method.

To add more dimension to your boxes, I would suggest drawing some hatching lines on the plane that faces the viewer. Adding lineweight would also help.

A lot of your lines are repeating. I see that you do plan your lines with points, but you shouldn't worry about accuracy. You need to draw your lines with confidence. Try focusing on the end point as you draw a line.

Many of your boxes are too similar. I would suggest drawing your Ys with different line proportions as well as different angles as long as they are over 90 degrees.

I hope this advice helps!

Hello! Let's take a look at your boxes.

It looks like you understand the convergence lines well. Your lines are extended in the right direction and they're converging as opposed to being parallel for most part.

Your lines came out smoothly. Please keep this up as it always important to remember to draw lines with confidence over accuracy. I would suggest that you draw over the contour of your boxes to give them more weight.

Another thing to consider is the variation of your Ys so that the boxes don't come out too similar. Try lengthening the lines of the Y and changing up the angles.

Overall, I think you really nailed this challenge. Great job!

Hello! Let's take a look at your boxes.

You seem to have put a lot of thought into your boxes, however there are a couple of things to look after. The first couple of boxes have the extending lines facing the wrong direction. Remember that the the lines have to be extended away from the viewer, as lines that face the viewer don't extend to the vanishing point. Try extending the lines away from the center dot of the Y. You might also want to recall the previous steps in constructing the box as well.

Many of your extended lines are parallel to each other. A box in three point perspective will always have their lines converge, so they shouldn't be parallel. I know it's a bit tricky since we can't mark the vanishing point, but you can approximate.

As with the lesson 1 assignments, remember to prioritize confidence over accuracy when it comes to lines. There was some repeating in the first boxes, but you did show improvement with your later boxes. Keep it up!

The orientations of your later boxes are too similar. To differentiate, try doing different lengths for the lines of your Ys.

Hello! Let me give you some tips.

Lines

Your ghosted lines seemed a bit wobbly. However, I also noticed some improvement with your ghosted planes. Remember not worry about accuracy, as confidence is much more important. Try focusing on the end point as you draw your lines. Drawing from your shoulder helps as well.

Ellipses

Your ellipses in tables are drawn well. Some of them just need to be a little closer to each other, but not too much to overlap. The ellipses on planes should also be a little closer to the boundaries. The minor axis of the funnels need to be in the middle to keep it symmetrical. Some of the ellipses in your funnels have only been drawn once. Remember to draw through your ellipses all the way around 2 to 3 times.

Boxes

The line work for your boxes are also wobbly. As such, the same principles as the line exercises apply here as well. Confidence is key!

Hello! Let's take a look at what we have here.

Lines

Your superimposed lines look great for most part. Your ghosted lines seem to wobble a bit. One of the tips I remember from the video is that focusing on the end point helps quite a bit. Also remember to draw from the shoulder as it is also something I need to work on. Some of your planes have some repeating lines, which is something you should try to avoid. Remember that confidence is more important than accuracy. This also applies to the rest of the assignments.

Ellipses

You've done a good job keeping ellipses within the table boundaries. The ellipses in planes are also within boundaries, but there is some wobbling. Your ellipses in funnels are nice and close, but you did not include the minor axis, which is supposed to be a short line placed in the middle. This makes it difficult to see if the funnels are symmetrical.

Boxes

You've drawn through your boxes, which is great! Your boxes look like there was some thought put into them as opposed to just guessing. It looks like you understand the idea of rotating boxes as well. Some of the boxes for organic perspective have some mistakes, but it's not too much to worry about.

I hope this helps!
