Thank you for providing insight. Here are larger boxes. I probably didn't mention it before but i did these a while ago but i didn't know about the unofficial critiques. I'm currently hoping to start 250 cylinders challenge after lesson 5. About the size of the boxes i drew late into the challenge were drawn on larger paper, just a bit shorter than A3 whereas earlier i was drawing them on A4 size. Though the boxes may seem of same size due to way i clicked the photo the later ones are quite big compared to initial ones.

Again, Thank you for spending your time critiquing my post! ????

Overall, great job! I can see you had difficulties with convergence of edges that are far apart from each other, but that's fine as it's a learning process.

I can see in your profile you have done lesson 3 however lesson 4 is missing. I assume you are planning to skip it? Any reason for that?

Next Steps:

Lesson 4 if you haven't done it yet?

This community member feels the lesson should be marked as complete, and 3 others agree. The student has earned their completion badge for this lesson and should feel confident in moving onto the next lesson.

Oh no i just haven't posted it yet. Thank you for sparing your time. I still need to work on boxes where the horizon line passes through the box that is both upper side and lower side converge towards center.

Sorry to disturb but if it isn't a bother could you see Elodin's critique on my lesson 1 post. I need 1 more agree on his critique then i can help others too. It's fine if you cant.

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.

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.

I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
