Hellooooo! I was waiting for this submission. :p

Let’s start with your lines. Well done on the superimposed lines exercise! There is a starting point with only fraying on one end, plus kept a smooth and clean line even on your longer lines. Your ghosted lines turned out great as well, this is a good indication that you are using the ghosting method and getting used to drawing from your shoulder. I did notice that you repeated some lines a couple of times, avoid doing this. Whether you pen dies a little or the line turns out really off, work with to prevent you from forming a habit of fixing your errors and creating a messy drawing. Your first page of the ghosted planes exercise turned out pretty well. One issue I see with it is the bending on the lines, which might be a result of either not drawing from your shoulder or a natural tendency. If the latter, consciously bend it in the other direction to cancel it out. On your second page though, it isn’t bad, but I noticed some subtle wobbling there and your lines are a lot more accurate there. Remember, confidence first, accuracy is something you gain over time.

For your table of ellipses exercise, one issue I can spot is not drawing with a concrete goal in mind. Many of your ellipses are just floating in the cell and not touching the defined boundaries you defined at first and didn’t keep the angle consistent. Also, at times, you drew too many times. I recommend drawing through them at least three times, or better yet, two times. Still, your ellipses were executed confidently here, with not too much of a concern for accuracy, plus you kept the ellipse’s degree consistent through the cell. The first page of ellipses in planes looks good. You strived to keep them tangent to the edges while keeping them smooth and confidently drawn. Sometimes there does appear to be a bit of hesitation, very noticeable on your second page there, they turned out a bit wobbly, so keep in mind to execute confidently. Your funnels look solid. The ellipses are well aligned with the minor axis and are fit in snugly against one another and inside the funnel.

In your plotted perspective, you didn’t extend your lines there, and I also don’t see the vanishing points for the first few, unless you are using the edges of the section there where the horizon line meets the edge of the scene. Not sure if it was a choice you made, but it is best to stick to the instructions and look at the example homework. No problems though, it was still done well. Great work on your rough perspective exercise. The boxes are converging towards the marked vanishing point with a good deal of accuracy. It is still a bit off, but as you improve with your spatial reasoning skills the roughness will be reduced. Your rotated boxes have some issues. It is a hard exercise, and you were not expected to nail it at first, but there is barely any rotation with any of your boxes there. It is possible that you didn’t take the vanishing points shifting through the scene as the box rotates, as explained here. Another thing that could have helped you here are to draw them a little closer to each other. That way, you can use the neighboring boxes as clues; using the information of your surroundings to roughly deduce where the vanishing point is. Still, I think you did this to the best of your ability, so I say you did it well enough to pass. Finally, your organic perspective exercise came out pretty good! There is depth to the scene here, and the boxes are kept shallow to reinforce that illusion. One thing to keep in mind is the initial Y’s angles, some of your wonkier boxes there are distorted because the angles are less than 90 degrees, so keep that in mind for the box challenge. This was done very well still.

I think you showed a good understanding of the exercises and are ready to move on to the box challenge… which you already are. Hey hey, never forget to wait for feedback on a lesson, there are you can miss some valuable information that can help you out in the future lessons you tackle. Still, you did a good job, so you get your work marked as complete. Congratulations on completing and passing lesson 1!
