Hi Nullspace I'll be handling the critique for your lesson 1 homework

Lines

-Starting with the superimposed lines exercise, I like how you challenged yourself by making long lines, the problem that jumps straight at me is that your lines tend to wobble a lot, remember that by using the ghosting method we should get rid of any hesitation or doubt, once we've put down our pen on the page any opportunity to make a mistake has passed.

-This is something that also quite noticeable in the ghosted lines exercise, try to check if you are drawing from your wrists, and also keep in mind that it is better to have a smooth line that is not accurate than to have a wobbly line that is accurate.

-Your linework in the ghosted planes exercise is much better, but it seems taht you were also a bit hesitant when it came down to making those lines.

So remember to keep practicing these exercises

Ellipses

-Starting with the ellipses in planes, one thing that jums at me is the fact that you are drawing through your ellipses, the point of drawing through them is to have them fell more solid but if you overdo this you are risking to make them stiffer, some of them are also a little bit deformed, though this is not something tha shows up a lot, keep an eye for it and try to make them as even as possible.

-Moving on to the tables of ellipses exercise, remember to draw with a concrete goal, keep this diagram in mind, some o your ellipses are coming along quite uneven and deformed so keep practicing them.

-Finishing the ellipses sections with the funnels exercise, it seems that you missed the placement of the axis form the start having it closer to a side rather tahn centered nut overall your work is coming along pretty nicely.

Boxes

-Starting with the rough perspective, you are doing a great job here, but you could keep practicing your aim.

-Continuing with the rotated boxes exercise, your work is comong along pretty niceky here, it seems that you grasped the point of this exercise.

-Finishing this critique with the organic persepective, everything feels consistent and belonging to the same space, but remeber to keep foreshortening as shallow as possible, some of ypur boxes are quite distorted.

You can work on all of this shortcomings in the 250 box challenge
