Hi! nice job on submitting your first homework lessons. First of all, i strongly recommend you for the upcoming homework (that 250 box challenge) to stick your drawings to black ink and for plotting or guidelines with a ruler, use another color (or when it's indicated by the rules of each exercise). With that said, let's get into the core skills of each exercise
Lines
Your lines are great, a little woobling over here or over there, but essentially you got the whole idea. Keep on plotting your stroke and don't forget to use the ghosting method everytime. I see some arcing lines, but there's just a few, keep that on mind. Congrats also on not repeating your lines and stick to them.
Ellipses
You did a great job sticking to the "no more than 3" rule. I can see how you struggle a little bit at first, but then you totally get it. Keep in mind the concepts of the minor axis in this exercise (it should split the ellipses in 2 symmetrical halves).
Boxes
On rough persepective, keep in mind that the boxes lines are perpendicular to the horizon line.
Nice job on rotated boxes, the corners are though, but you get it closely.
Keep in mind the perspective of the boxes (organic perspective) but you will tackle that on lesson 2, so it's fine for now :).
Overall you did an oustanding job, specially with the rotated box. Keep in mind the things that i've told you to improve through the 250 box challenge. I'll mark this homework as complete.
Laslas.
Next Steps:
Move on into the 250 box challenge.
-Remember to do a 15 minutes warm up before every session of drawing boxes! (i recommend ghosted planes)
-keep it on, drink a lot of water and sleep well :)
Thank you so much for the feedback!
Really appreciate the tips on perspective and your encouragement.
Now, onto the 250 box challenge!
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.
