250 Box Challenge
5:07 PM, Sunday November 29th 2020
Hello again,
so after a month of almost daily effort here are the boxes. I had a few rough patches along the way when I was struggling to find motivation. Sometimes I would take 20 minutes to finish one box because I would be ghosting a line forty times (really), only to make it completely wobbly in the end. So I tried to force myself to a faster pace and also to draw more intuitively (instead of spending several minutes figuring out how the angles would change when the box rotates etc.)
I would say it was a great exercise and I have gained more confidence, but there is still a lot to improve - for example extreme angles/rotations of the box in relation to viewer. I will continue with drawing boxes as a warm up.
I see a major weakness in line quality. When I would try to highlight the contour I would usually make a lot of messy lines instead of ones crisp and sharp one.
Thank you very much for the critique
