No problem!
All the best!
Hello!
I reviewed your work.
You have improved a lot! It's good.
The boxes are turning quite nice and good.
I really love it!
I'm marking your lesson complete.
Very good.
Ps- sorry for delay again!
np! i'll review n get back
kinda also in middle of something.
pls wait up a bit
sorry for delay
will reply to you as soon as possible.
i have also not been on drawabox lately, too much work to handle.
but, will definitely revert back to u in a week or so.
i really apologize for further delay too
thnx considering in advance
heyy hello,
sorry for late reply
its alright life happens. its up to you to restart or no!
thank you!
Hello!
Thank You for replying back!
Your work is much improved now!
Well Done, keep it up!
I am marking your lesson as complete! :)
Next Steps:
yayy!! you can move onto next lesson.
Hello!
Thank you for replying back
It looks pretty improved now...don't worry you will get it eventually.
All The Best!!

Hello!
Starter: If I ask for revision, it doesn't mean you are wrong. I just feel the need for you to improve so I am asking for revision, thats all.
Overall Review:
Something seems off in Contour Lines section. Form intersection are good, but not clear, very confusing.
Main element line weight missing.
Detailed Review:
Contour Lines:
Ribbon movement in 3D space missing, no flow. Organic form contour lines seems off.
Organic Arrows:
Well you tried and it's normal to not understand at the first go. Few things i would definitely want to point out:
1.Your arrows don't show the effect of "moving in 3D", they are kinda flat against the plane of paper. You should believe that your arrows are 3D, then you make the necessary changes. Why am I so hell bent on your arrows looking as if they are floating in plane because, these arrows are very useful in your plants for your next lesson.
Your inward turn should match your outward turn ( as specified here https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/4/overlap). Don't be afraid to overlap your curves, as they will give you the required result. It's alright don't worry you will get it right!
Also, I know understanding perspective is difficult, but you shouldn't be afraid to apply it ( mistake specified in this https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/4/perspective). We are here to learn not to draw pretty drawings
Lastly I would like to you to read this organic arrow topic, see the video once again, understand it and then try one page of organic arrows (Organic arrows: https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/organicarrows).
Organic Forms with Contour Lines:
In contour ellipses, you degree should reduce as you come near to the middle ( stated in this https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/5/ellipses). Your degree pf eclipses is quite large. Also, in contour line your "hooking" the contour line around the form is just beyond necessary. Make planned and calculated marks or curve as they can hinder your illusion. Now, here you have hooked your lines too much inside the sausage. They are looking shabby and carelessly made. Make it more calculated, you will get the desire result ( in this look at image and notice the small sausages marked as not to do, you will understand it https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/5/curves). For your better understanding I would like you to do one page of Organic forms with contour lines with changes
Texture and Detail:
Good try, keep it up!
Texture Analysis:
You understood the analysis, good!
Dissections:
I would really like to point out that the texture done by you is very vague, i can see scratchy and lines marks, very rough and vague. I know the dissections is a tedious work so I am not much pressing on this (specified in this: https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/7/step4). You understood the topic so its okay. But, do remember for your future lessons to be more detailed as it gives a cherry on the top thingy to your construction.
Construction:
I liked your work in this section, nice!
Form Intersections:
Your Intersections are really nice, but you didn't used line weight to specify or highlight intersection. So, it's creating a bit of confusion. This is the challenging topic but you tackled it well. Very good! i loved it, keep it up!
Organic Intersections:
No changes required at all, nicely done. Perfect slouching and shadows very well!
**One more thing: I especially highlighted your mistakes for you to understand and not to repeat those. As we are here to learn, we should know where we are going wrong. Don't feel sad or worry about it too much you will succeed eventually with time and effort thats all. You will do well ALL THE BEST!
Do get back to me with your revision work.**
If you have any query about the review, feel free to ask!
Thank You!
Next Steps:
1 page of organic arrows (with reading and understanding of the topic).
1 page of organic forms with contour lines (with changes specified and intentional curves)
Hello!
Overall review:
It is looking pretty nice and good work. Also, it is clean and neat
Detailed Review:
Contour Lines:
This is a pretty nice and clean section. Just a bit attention in organic forms needed.
Organic Arrows:
Your arrows are turning nicely, but somewhere you tried to make it more complicated. So, it is a bit problematic to understand which is inner and outer part of the ribbon. But, it's completely okay! we are here to learn. I can tell you did understood this exercise. No repetition is required.
Organic Forms with Contour Lines:
In contour ellipses, you degree should reduce as you come near to the middle. Your forms aren't giving an illusion of 3D. For that to happen you should first believe that your form is 3D. So, it is resulting in your contour lines not giving the illusion it should. I think you do a page of organic form with contour eclipses. While doing the exercise don't forget to keep in mind that the illusion your are trying to serve. Just because I said a repetition doesn't mean you are wrong. I am just telling you to understand it better
Texture and Detail
I did love this section! keep it up!
Texture Analysis
You did it so well and detailed. I really loved it! Also, I must say, your transition from dark to light is simply amazing and actually mesmerizing. I loved it! keep it up!
Dissections:
Properly done with silhouette and details. Also, it does convey that the dissections are 3D. Well done!
Construction:
This section was pretty challenging.
Form Intersections:
Well, this is actually difficult part and we don't expect to get it right on the first go. The goal here is to understand and i think you understood this pretty well. Well done! your most of the intersections do look nice, so don't worry! You did s great job here. Nice
Organic Intersections:
I did notice a very prominent thing in your intersection here, that is, some of your form comes from below the heap of form and they overlap to the upper forms, which is quite contradictory to human eye. Now take an example, if you arrange a bunch of half filled balloons. If you arrange them on top of each other, how will the lower balloon overlap with the upper? It will definitely slouch down and spread on the surface. Try to compare this with your organic intersection, the lower form will definitely slouch down. Slouching the form up will make it unreal and stop the 3D imagination. So, for you to understand what I told now, I would like you to do one page of organic intersection too.
If you have any query about the review, feel free to ask.
Thank you!
Next Steps:
1 page of organic form with contour eclipses.
1 page of organic intersection.
Hey!
no problem, keep it up! :)
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
