Your boxes look great! I can see the progression that your boxes took aiming at the vanishing points or having them just go parallel. I'd say your good to go to the next lesson!

Hello! I wanna add that there's a main problem in your boxes, and that's that they tend to still diverge from time to time.

Example 1: https://i.imgur.com/4YxFrBA.png

Example 2: https://i.imgur.com/Z64BkEs.png

To move on I think it's important that you realize why these boxes main mistake happens, why it's a mistake and how to solve it. The reason it's a mistake is because every single set of parallel lines of each box should converge in a single vanishing point.

If you don't know how to force at least the outer lines to be converging follow this tutorial step by step .

If you have any doubts please tell me! Try the tutorial out and do 1 more page of boxes (like 3 or 4 total boxes)

Good luck and keep it up! If you didn't understand anything reply and I'll do my best to expand

Next Steps:

1 page of boxes

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

You still have some mistakes, could you go over the boxes (with another pen) to make sure you understand what you're doing wrong? Correct the lines to how they should have been

The Art of Brom

The Art of Brom

Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.

The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
