Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
5:01 PM, Friday May 7th 2021
Hi everybody.
Hi, i will be reviewing your submission.
Seeing the accuracy on the lines and also on the ellipses exercises, it make me think that maybe you lost a bit of patience in doing the boxes exercises, which are less accurate and hurried. Don't know if it's worth it to redo them since you'll be drawing 250 of them. So i'll mark this lesson as complete.
Next Steps:
250 Boxes challenge with the advice to think them through without rushing. So you can understand the planes better and to make it become easier for to draw them correctly in a shorter amount of time as you go.
I'm marking agreement that you should move on to the next lesson, but I want to note that I agree with the not rushing part, make sure you're ghosting each line/ellipse and trying to draw each with confidence and less hesitation so they don't wobble as much =) It's definitely more noticeable from rough perspective onwards, the earlier ones like ghosted lines specifically were pretty clean. That stuff will come with time and practice too, but it's good to be aware of it! Also quick side note, I don't remember what the instructions were for hatching boxes in the first few lessons, but it's a good idea to try to draw those lines like you do the others, with ghosting and clean lines, instead of squiggling them =)
Edit: Oops I think I should have replied to OP not to you Narquelion, that's my bad haha
Hey, thanks for the feedback.
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.
