    Hello, here's my revision for lesson 7: https://imgur.com/a/6gKWKLE

    I hope you dont mind me asking this, but i have somewhat a hard time subdividing planes into odds number like 7, 9 , etc, As was seen on the car 3 otographic, i kinda just mirrored the plane until it have 7 equal plane. I dont know if its a valid approach of doing it, so im going to ask this just in case.

    i attempted (3 times) to copy the exact method that you post a link to here https://d15v304a6xpq4b.cloudfront.net/lesson_images/AndreasAronsson_DividingEqualParts.pdf

    the (1/7)

    but i always ends up with 8 equal plane, and i dont know why, its so weird.

    Also last question, outside of drawabox, is drawing the whole box first than cutting or carving the box a wrong way to approach drawing ? its somewhat easier for me to do that rather than constructing to scale, but if its a bad/wrong method, than i will not do it even outside of drawabox.

    Anyway, i'm sorry if im asking to many questions, i hope i dont take too much of your time.

    Thank you.

    Thank you for the critiques,

    i didnt realise that i wrote the degree wrong. i looked at my elipse guide, and i think there's a mistake in the numbering https://imgur.com/a/4GXuLPO (pic for reference)

    Thank you for your detailed critiques, it helps me understand a lot of things.

    There's a question i want to ask regarding the wheel challenge. I tried to find the master elpise template, all over my country, but didn't find one that have varying degree. The closest i can get is this : https://imgur.com/a/4lx4qLj

    i think it lacks the 15 and 60 degree

    Is this ruler still workable ? or should i just freehand all the way ?

    I could buy the one you recommend from amazon, but it will take a month for it to arrives here (not to mention our notoriously bad postal service).

    Thank you.

The Art of Brom

The Art of Brom

Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.

The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
