how lond have you been on exercise 1

8:55 PM, Thursday March 26th 2020

I was on exercise 1 for about a week, which was a bit too long. Someone had pointed that out in the discord server and I took their advice and decided to post the finished work here and start practicing the ghosted lines. I kinda grinded on the exercise a bit, which was kinda my fault but it's just a habit that's gonna be replaced. Gonna make sure I don't spend too much time again doing the ghosted lines.

okay

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.

Steven Zapata's Secrets of Shading

Steven Zapata's Secrets of Shading

Some of you will have noticed that Drawabox doesn't teach shading at all. Rather, we focus on the understanding of the spatial relationships between the form we're drawing, which feeds into how one might go about applying shading. When it comes time to learn about shading though, you're going to want to learn it from Steven Zapata, hands down.

Take a look at his portfolio, and you'll immediately see why.
