    Thanks for your critique.

    Concerning the first tire where I filed in the side planes of the spokes, how should I have done it ? Since it's a completely flat surface, by filling one thick line instead of the whole surface ?

    Thanks again,

    Hi and thanks for all your advices.

    I tried to apply everything you said to these 4 more construction drawings:

    Could you show how you would have done the lion's mane (if it doesn't take too much time) please ?

    Thanks again

    Thanks for your critique.

    One of the link (https://imgur.com/7XyUD0R) does not work, could you send it back please ?

    To be sure I understood, in order show the additional structure, I have to add a new layer that wrap around the previous layer ?

    Thanks again,

    Thanks for your critique. I looked back at the reference (https://media.gerbeaud.net/2018/08/640/abricots.jpg) and it seems unvoidable to do this zigzaging, because the changes appeared all the way of the edges. I'm not sur to be clear. But maybe I should not follow completely the ref ?

    Thanks again

    Hi and thank you for your critiques, I will take them into account for the future. As requested, you will find below a link with 4 pages of plant construction. I still had some difficulty with the texture.

    Thanks for your reply, I think I will do the texture challenge along the other lessons ;)

    Hi and thank you for your critique :)

    Concerning the texture analysis, to be sure I clearly understood, my gradient is no significant enough ?

    With the dissection I need to focus on the cast shadows but in the example https://drawabox.com/lesson/2/7/example like for the hair, we can't do otherwise than following the shape sometimes, same with the bricks ? I feel like we sometimes have to followe the shape and at the same time use the cast shadow ?

    Not sure if I'm clear enough...

    Should I redo this dissection exercise to get my hand on it or the 25 texture challenge will help me improve with that ?

    Thanks again :)

    Hello thank you fro your critique, I will do planes and funnels as warmups then ;). I will continue with the 250 box challenge. I could try again the rotated box exercise after this chanllenge or should I first do lesson 2 and then redo it ?

    Thanks again,

    S.

Ellipse Master Template

Ellipse Master Template

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.
