    Hi Weijak,

    I'll add some boxes in my warm-ups and be aware of those corners.

    Thank you so much!

    Hi, Gator!

    Congrats on completing the homework for lesson 1. Let's begin!

    Lines

    Superimposed Lines: Good job! They're pretty consistent but some of the lines are kind of arc, remember to use your shoulder. With the curves, it's ok. But one important thing. I'm afraid that you are not taking your time to line up your pen to the start. Take your time and do not rush.

    Ghosted Lines: Those lines are confident and smooth. Like two or three are kind of arc, but it's ok. About the target, it's normal to miss, don't worry. With warm-ups, you'll improve accuracy.

    Ghosted Planes: Nice work! I can see your improvement with lines! :)

    Ellipses

    Table Ellipses: You draw through like two or three times, good! Some of the ellipses are confident others are wobbly.

    Ellipses in planes: Mos of them are confident. Some times are a little bit wobbly.

    Funnels: Focus on ghost more your ellipses, some of them are aligned to the minor axis. They aren't confident or even shape, so I'll add this exercise to my warm-ups.

    Boxes

    Rough Perspective: Good job! You use the ghosting method.

    Rotated Boxes: The boxes are rotated, good. In the corners, boxes aren't completely rotated. See the corners in that example: https://d15v304a6xpq4b.cloudfront.net/lesson_images/9a2db6a0.jpg

    Organic Perspective: Pretty good! I can see those boxes are rotated. With the 250 box challenge, you'll have a lot of practice.

    Next Steps:

    Feel free to move onto the 250 box challenge. Good luck!

    Tips that will help you :)

    Hi RoboLobo!

    I read CLUMSY PENGUIN'S critique and I agree with him. You did a good job.

    I loved the confidence and flow you had in your lines and ellipses. In the boxes exercise, take your time on putting your dots on the paper. In the Rotating boxes exercise, I see that you understand how the boxes are rotated. Good start keep working.

    ¡Buena Suerte! / Good Luck!

    Next Steps:

    Keep with that confidence and work hard in that challenge.

Staedtler Pigment Liners

Staedtler Pigment Liners

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
