Hi Jekettex, as you know I just posted Lesson 1 for review so don't know if my advices would plenty help you, anyway, there what i though on your work:

LINES:

As far as i can see i think you did a good job there, on superimposed lines pretty much all start from similar points, letting know that you take you're time to prepare each line, on the ghosted lines and planes i just see one or two wobbly lines, i think as a start it's a good job, the only thing i would critic is the accurate of some lines, but, i think that would come with experience, so, well done.

Ellipses:

Not much to say here, your ellipses seems fare enough confident. I can tell you had some struggles making them reaching their boundaries but, again, it's a fare enough good for starting. On Funnels you could change more the degree by making little axis bigger on the last ellipses, but since that was an optional task I won't say that you should repeat it

Boxes

The plotted perspective is well done, nothing to say, but, the rough perspective have some issues on how the perspective change the lines, i can see that you draw some 90° degrees angles and that make some boxes seem out of perspective compared to other that you done great. Try to ghost the lines of your boxes all the way to the vanishing point, that did it for me.

On rotated boxes and organic perspective you did a great job rotating each box, but you imposed some lines (specially on organic perspective) so try to do only one line, even if it gets wrong, that would help you with accuracy and smoothness.

Hoping to be helpful,

Next Steps:

One page of rough perspective

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

Hi Pakas,

This is all really helpful advice! I definitely have a habit of imposing on lines a little too much where it isn't necessarily needed. I think i'm trying to iron out imperfections, i'm not too sure. I've noted what you touched on with the funnels exercise as well and will incorporate that when I do it again. I look foreward to sharing critiques with you again soon!

All the best,

Jekettex

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef

PureRef

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.

When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.

Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
