This has been my work so far, the lines exercises are pretty humiliating but I hope I made up for it with the next stuff, it took me a lot of time (3 months approximately) since I am a complete beginner, and I will soon face the 250 boxes.
If you have any advice to give me I would be more than happy to listen to it, I am sure I will need it.
That being said, have a nice day everyone!
HELLO
Seems like your ghosted lines aren't straight and either didn't reach the mark it should be or over the mark it should be.
I wish you could practice it everytime before you start a section as warmup.You have to be very confident when the ntp of your pen touches the paper and do a quick (slightly faster) single stroke line with moving only your shoulder.But instead of doing ghosted lines I want you practice it as doing Planes , they are same but planes are just slightly complicated.
Ellipses looking clean but for the funnel part those ellipses all have the same degree the middle one is facing you by its side so it's 0 degree but as it turns you can see slightly bit around like 10 degree and so on ... 25 40... and it gets more and more facing towards you btw ellipses are looking good tho
boxes are bit weird tho but no worries in next section you'll be drawing 250 boxes so it'll get better in no time :D
Next Steps:
250boxes gogo
A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
