Hi, these are an improvement for the most part but you are still getting some really wobbly linework on these rough perspective boxes. One of the reasons we use the ghosting method is to break up the drawing process into several steps.
-
Put Down your points (This is where all of your thinking about the line accuracy should happen)
-
Ghost your line multiple times
-
Execute your line with confidence and don't concern yourself with accuracy during this step and try and rely on the muscle memory you built up ghosting
This process can take a while to get used to especially if you are grappling with learning to draw with your shoulder at the same time. Another possible thing that could be happening is that you are reverting to drawing with your wrist for some of these lines. That is another thing you should look out for. You are showing improvement but there's still plenty of work to be done so make sure you keep practicing line confidence during your warmups.
The one real issue I have with your rough perspective boxes is that you didn't extend your lines back on any of these. I mentioned it in the critique but perhaps you missed that part.
I want you to do one more page of Rough Perspective Exercises. Make sure you go for more confident linework and make sure you extend all of your lines back and don't skip any
So I still would like you to extend the lines back on these boxes to check your work as this is something you are going to have to get used to doing for every single box you draw during the 250 box challenge. Once you do that and take another photo I'll mark this as complete and you can move on to the 250 box challenge.
