    Thank you Dio, I will try my best to apply this advice to the revisions

    I appreciate the critique Dio. I will make sure to do an in depth analysis of this information you’ve provided to put it to good use. Hoping by the time I reach you on lesson 5 I’ll be able to provide significant improvement. Thank you so much for your time.

    I agree with the previous critique you seem to be unfamiliar with using your shoulder which I suspect will not be an issue and you’ll get used to it quickly.

    Please ensure in the 250 box challenge that your hatching is done free handed and make sure to take your time with it. Quickly people get overwhelmed with doing to much at once. Anyway I loved your 50% doodles you’ve got a ton of potential. Goodluck.

    Next Steps:

    Looking good mate I agree with the previous critique fully. Also please ensure that you use a fineliner when required I believe this is a ballpoint pen your currently using and that’s perfectly fine just not for future reference. Also when doing hatching make sure you go from one side all the way to the other with one full line it will be critiqued in the 250 box challenge later on. Also please take your time on the next exercise it’s a big one. Good luck ????

    Great work your line work has improved significantly a minor critique is that your hatching doesn’t fully go from one side to the other every-time. However that’s a very minor issue compared to the entirety of work here. You have a clear sense direction for each box. I like that you did the optional hatching and on a few you of the boxes you added line weight as well both to show that your willing to put that extra work and you did a good job on both. Your line extension also converge for 75% of the boxes you definitely improved at this, as the exercise went on. You understood the exercise well and improved even more from the lesson prior in all regards.

    What to practice as warmups or just overall.

    • You used a lot of cube shaped boxes they look good however it would be a good idea to use skinnier boxes to ensure proficiency in all aspects. I’m sure you’ll do good with these two though

    • Experiment more with foreshortening like shown here. Specifically having the boxes have a even more rapid convergence. https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/1/foreshortening

    All and all you did really good I’m sure this was alotta work and if you actually did that in one day like the dates suggest. That’s pretty maddening. You should try some 50% rule while you wait for a second person to review the content here. I’ll say it one more time good work. ????.

    Next Steps:

    Practice the 50% rule, then proceed to the second lesson.

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
