Hi, my name is Shinra and I will try to help you. I noticed an improvement of the overlapping lines but I suggest you focus on using the shoulder when drawing (watch this). In ghost lines and in plans you tend to neglect the lines and focus on their accuracy, I suggest you draw with more confidence. In Ellipses in Planes I see that the ellipses in the plans look pretty good but there are still some problems with confidence. (Make sure you always use the ghost method for each line you draw).Going to the boxes I can see a good start in understanding the space but I can't take my eyes from the 1 point pages. A nice day!
Next Steps:
1 page of Ellipses in Planes
1 page of Rough Perspective
And then you can go to 250 box challenge
Here is the extra pages I done for the Elipeses in Planes and Rough Persepective excersises: (https://imgur.com/a/6kzBH8g)
While doing these, I noticed my pen's lines seems to fade out when I draw the line too fast. Is this normal?
It depends on which pen you use. Good job, for the next lessons I suggest you do a 10 minute warm up with superimposed lines and ellipses before you start the homework.
I've seen you make this suggestion a few times - reminding them to do warmups is great, but try not to tell them to just do a specific subset. They should be rotating through all the exercises they've learned so far. It's okay to focus more on some for a while, but I think your wording makes it seem that they don't need to warmup with boxes, and that would be misleading.
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.
