thank you the your feedback! truthfully, these lessons are much more challenging than i ever would’ve thought. especially the rotated boxes. i tried to challenge myself to work without looking at Uncomfortable’s example because it felt like cheating, but i’ve now started to get a hang of it. with the other two though, im sure i made a lot of the same mistakes despite my best efforts, but here’s my resubmissions. https://imgur.com/a/jUxbrOU

Hey HOMEISHELHEIM,

So it looks good to me, other than the rough perspective. The rough perspective is wrong though. It's all meant to trace back to a single vanishing point, rather than just the line.

So one more page of that, and you're golden.

Next Steps:

1 page of rough perspective.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

hey Aki,

i redid rough perspective like you asked, but in the example you linked and study materials, it says the boxes don’t have to reach the VP, although i tried my best to make that happen!

thanks again for reviewing my homework

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.

PureRef

PureRef

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.

When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.

Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
