Thank you so much! I'll try to pace myself more while drawing, but i lose patience really easily unfortunately.

Here are my revisions.

Thank you for the critique. I really struggled with the plant drawing but i think it came out ok in the end.

Haha, you're welcome!

Good luck!

Hey Kisanto! Congratulations on conquering the mountain of boxes. 250 boxes man, what a journey. And you made it to the end. You should be proud of yourself.

On to the critique.

All of your lines are extending in the right direction. Good job.

There is very little divergence throughout your submission, and where there is you've done my job of pointing it out yourself. Really all your annotations show me you carefully analyzed each and every one of your boxes. Good work

You're hatching your boxes, and you're doing it very well on top of that.

You're doing a very good job at varying the orientation of your boxes, however as you've pointed out yourself there are very few boxes in 2 or 1 point perspective. I'd add them to my warm-up exercises but don't worry about it.

Altogether I'd say you improved greatly through the course of this challenge- all you boxes feel solid, the convergences are converging- through and through a great job

Hey Solveika!

Congrats on pulling through lesson 2! You should be proud of getting to the end of it, it's no easy task.

Let's begin...

THINKING IN 3D

Arrows

I LOVE your arrows. Really. They showcase your 3D thinking exquisitely- the use of lineweight, the crosshatching and the bold trajectories they follow. Brilliant work. You understood the purpose of this exercise thoroughly.

Organic forms/Sausages

And the brilliant work continues, most of your sausages are good for a few duds here and there. They vary in orientation and direction, and your contour lines follow and define the form spectacularly. Congrats, you understood this exercise too.

TEXTURES AND DETAIL

Texture Analysis

Good job on getting through this, it can be quite intimidating if you've never attempted textures before.

You've done a really good job on all 3 of your textures, but the 3rd one is missing the white bar on the far right. The texture should be slowly fading into nothing and this isn't happening on your mushroom texture.

Texture Dissections

Brilliant work here as well. Though i need to draw your attention to some of your textures- they don't wrap around the form this is especially evident on the ice cream cone or the cracked earth examples. It's an issue that repeats throughoutthis exercise. You do seem to wrap your textures on other examples so I wouldn't worry a lot. Just pay mind to it in the future.

CONSTRUCTION

Form intersections

All your forms feel solid and like they belong to the same scene. Good job keep that up.

The intersections are good, really good for a first introduction to the subject.

Check out Optimus's guide on intersections.

Organic intersections

So some of shadows aren't sticking to the form they're being casted on. It's not that common but it does happen here and there.

Your line quality drops on this exercise. It's not that uncommon since this is a particularly though exercise but still. You should be confidently adding weight to your lines, not trace slowly. This issue seems to go away on your second page.

The whole drawings feel solid on the whole. Good job.

With all that said...

Hey, congrats on getting those revisions done, even if they're late.

Yeah, i can see an improvement throughout this submission.

I'd say add the boxes to your repertoire of warm-up exercises, but otherwise you can...

Hi! I wanna thank you for the extensive and detailed critique of my work. You clearly put a lot of time and work in it and I appreciate that a lot.

Here's my revisions: http://imgur.com/a/kyRsXVx

I also wanted to ask if you suggest starting the 25 textures challenge alongside my Drawabox lessons? It was something I wanted to try as soon as I've heard of it but idk if I'm getting in over my head here.

Again, thank you very much for the critique and I like that you asked for revisions. They were definitely due.

No problem, was a pleasure.

Hey Tiamal! Good job on finishing the challenge!

Linework

The first that struck me when i opened your submission was how clean your linework is. You clearly took your time with each line, used the ghosting method- Great job!

Box Construction

You've done well with extending your lines throughout the challenge, I don't see any missed extensions or ones that are in the wrong direction, good work.

Your convergences are coming along nicely! You seem to understand that your lines are meant to converge, never diverge or be parallel.

As for the foreshortening, I see you kinda lean onto more dramatic foreshortenings, very few shallow ones. Make sure you get some practice with shallow foreshortening too.

Orientation- You tend to draw a lot of boxes in the same kind of orientation. When drawing the initial Y the lines can have any lengths, same with the angles as long as they are over 90 degrees. Check this diagram out, but don't copy it the boxes in it, you still need to use your imagination.

With all that said...

Hello 40URHEAD! Congratsulations on conquering the mountain of boxes! It's no small deed.

Linework

Wow your line work is impressive. It's very clean; I can tell you used the ghosting method for all your lines. Pleased to notice you hatched lines for most of the challenge. You started adding lineweight to your boxes around the 150th, and you did it well too: it's placed properly on the silhouette of your boxes. Good work all through.

Box Construction

I'm liking what I see here too. You drew boxes of many different orientations with varied foreshortening and you have understood that all your lines have to convergence, even if its ever so slightly. (save for the few orientations were they turn into 1-2 Point Perspectives. Good

There's a few times where your line extensions are missing (94, 140) and there's this one box where you.. didn't finish it apparently? (191) But except for those few occasions you did all well with extending your lines.

Conclusion

Overall your boxes came out great, you understood the purpose of this exercise very well, the execution is fantastic....
