Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
9:42 AM, Saturday May 21st 2022
Heya lovely people! Just finished the first lesson of drawabox and I'm posting here to get your guys' critiques, if you got the time! Have a beautiful day!
Hello, nice day to you too!
Good job on completing Lesson #1.
I will take care to correct it and highlight if there are any errors.
Lines:
Your lines don't look bowed either, it's adequate anyway.
You are dotting the beginning and end of your lines, don't stop doing that as it is very useful especially in the ghosting method.
The ghosted plans look great, both because you are planning all your lines correctly, and because your ellipses are well drawn.
Ellipses:
Keep drawing your ellipses 2 times, this improves accuracy in all lessons.
All well in your ellipse tables, perfect in that they do not cross each other, nor go off the edges of the table.
In your funnels there is no error. Your ellipses are aligning to the minor axis (the line in the middle) as expected.
Boxes:
And you're right to keep drawing through your boxes.
It's not the idea that they arrive perfectly, but you can see the effort which is the important thing.
Had you kept the spaces between the boxes a little smaller, it would have been m much better.
Conclusion:
No major errors ; you can see that you understood the general concepts of the exercises.
I will mark your lesson as completed. And good luck in what follows!
Awesome man, thanks so much! Good luck in your drawing journey as well, hope you are doing all well! :D
You're welcome, thank you and I hope you'll be great in the next lessons too! ^ ^
Surely hope so! I just started the 250 box challange stuff, knew that those years playing Minecraft weren't wasted, even tho my parents wouldnt agree... I am VERY exited for the other lessons, I am currently at the SECOND box (I know, such progress), hope we'll meet again so you can give me a passing grade ;)
This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
