Hey Popl, congrats on finishing this lesson.

Your lines seem good, with no major problems, except for some wobbling that you should be aware of. Remember to draw fast with a shoulder motion in order to keep a smooth line. This happens on your superimposed and ghosted lines.

Your ghosted planes seem slightly better, although it seems you didn't place the dots before drawing the inner lines. You should place dots for all your lines, so they act as a goal to where you're drawing the line.

Overall your ellipses are good, a couple of them show some wobbling, specially in the funnels, maybe because you were trying to force them to find in the within of the exterior lines. Keep in mind that right now you should focus more in keeping the lines and ellipses smooth, as accuracy will later come naturally, if you keep practicing correctly.

Your boxes exercises are also decent, although in some cases, specially on the organic perspective, you don't seem to be placing the dots before the lines. Remember to do this for all your lines. Also, in this exercise, you could also have overlapped some more boxes and played with the line weight, in order to highlight which one is in fron and which is in the back.

Next Steps:

250 boxes challenge.

Thank you a lot for your feedback ! Indeed I wasn't placing dots before making my lines, so I'll make sure to keep that and your other comments in mind, for the next exercises.

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.
