Looks good! Though not all of the lines that need to be fully perpendicular to the horizon are, I feel like that's as a result of some general, understandable sloppiness, than a misunderstanding of the concept. (If there are any doubts, though: that third VP is at infinity (or, close enough to it, that it's safe to treat it as if it is) so those lines are all parallel. Since they're heading straight up, this makes them perpendicular to the horizon.) Anyway, feel free to move on~

thanks for the critique and reply but I'm still confused about the lines being perpendicular. Does it mean to make sure the lines that are coming from the horizon cross the vertical lines which are coming from the third vanishing point that isnt visible?

Not the lines that are coming from the horizon, the horizon itself. Here it is, on one of your frames: https://imgur.com/a/aQeHAdX The horizon is in blue, and the correction lines are in red. Notice how they intersect the horizon line at a right angle? The reasoning for it is explained here: https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/6/infinity I hope this clears it up~

Thanks for the clarification. I see what mistakes I made and I'll know to hold my ruler straighter so the third vp will always go to infinity.

Below this point is mostly ads. Indie projects, and tool/course recommendations from us.
This section is reserved for low-cost advertising space for art related indie projects.
With how saturated the market is, it is tough for such projects to get eyes on their work.
By providing this section, we hope to help with that.

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something we've used ourselves, or know to be of impeccable quality. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. 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.

I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
