250 Box Challenge
1:29 PM, Saturday August 15th 2020
Wow this has been one intense ride! I think I did learn something, but I think I approached the exercise in a wrong way unfortunately.
One of the mistakes I think I made was focusing to much on the vanishing points in the hopes that that would just make each box correct. At the very end of the challenge I decided to let that go a bit more and just get a bit more of a 'feel' for each box. This helped me much more in getting an intuition and getting to understand (I don't fully grasp it yet) the relation between foreshortening and the vanishing points. So I think that that is a huge loss on my side and wish I would have spend more time on making boxes that way.
In general I found it very difficult, I don't think there are a lot of boxes that really aren't correct. I will move on for now, but I might retry the challenge after all the lessons.
Also as you can see I traced all the lines freehand, I presumed that that was suggested. This means that a lot of boxes don't have clean outer lines.
Thank you (all) for taking a look!
