If you get tired or overwhelmed you can and should take a break and come back to it later. Doing the exercises properly will only help you. Again take your time. If you rush you won't grasp the concepts the exercises teach , you will get faster with time but for now take your time.

For the plotted perspective U should be using a ruler as advised. Follow the lessons to a tee, the best you can.

Yur plotted is much better.

Revision

I will say redo the rotated boxes, you did not draw through some boxes. Single confident plotted lines and draw through all the boxes rotating them.

Next Steps:

Rotated boxes

Draw them through

Single confident plotted lines (you mostly did this but the drawing though is the main focus here)

Rotated

Again take your time, it's just one page, if U get overwhelmed wait and come back, again one line between plots of it doesn't come out how you want move on don't draw over it

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

You can move on, I don't know How missed your message, sorry for the late reply , thankfully you had continued to the 250 box challenge already. I think if you look at the rotated boxes of the lesson one submission vs this one you will see a big difference. keep revisiting lessons to improve and see what you missed out on. And use these exercises as warmups trying to improve each time Good luck:)

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
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.
