Alright, I received them. Again, thank you for putting your time to get better! Now, I'll leave some comments.

  • Ghosted planes. The lines look smooth and straight and it seems that you eliminated any wobbling here, amazing! A few lines still have some arching or a bump, but I think you'll improve it over time just as the matter with overshooting (it's fine for this lesson purpose).

  • Ellipses in planes. Many much more even and confident than in the previous run. That big one on the right is my favorite. Some kinks remain, but it's a great advancement, you do seem to listen to my critique. However, of course, aim to fit the ellipses within planes in the future.

  • Funnels. You fixed the spacing mistake — that's the main thing. Now for the most part they are just touching each other as supposed. You played with the elliptic degrees and that's great as it heavily reinforces the illusion of a 3D object. It will be crucial for making the later lessons and developing spacial thinking as a whole. Although, by the time you will have to draw similar forms again in the lessons (starting from L2), try your best to tighten the outlines of your ellipses, so the organic forms will be much more believable. And remind yourself of true ellipse forms from references once in a while.

  • Organic perspective. Good to see the line confidence grown in this exercise too! Ghosting accuracy and convergences may still not be the best, but don't worry too much about it now. After all, you will have 250 more possibilities to improve those aspects!

To summarize, you made a great deal of improvement in the pointed out issues. While still not perfect, you will have a lot of opportunities to nail them in the future lessons. Be sure to read (and reread!) all instructions carefully, remebmer to have fun and good luck!

Next Steps:

Proceed to the 250 boxes challenge and continue to work on your linework/ellipses as a part of your warmups.

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
