Hey Hey!!

I went through it all and I think you did improve, which is super great, good job!

Your Lines don't arch as much anymore and overall seem more confident than before. Your Ellipses also have less room in between each other and the border. Good job! You can continue doing these assignments as a warm up. They'll help you impove your overall art skills a lot!

However for the Rough Perspective exercise it seems you still didn't quite understand the gist and theory behind perspective, vanishing points and vanishing lines.

I won't force you to do it again but I tried explaining it in my own words one more time for you and if you want to you can always try again on your own. You will need this skill in the upcoming 250 Box Challenge where you will basically do nothing else but this, so I heavily recommend trying to understand this if you don't wanna suffer throughout the next section haha. It's super rewarding to understand this as well.

In addition, here's the link to Uncomfortable's explanation on this site as well:

AND the entire half an hour explanation via video, if that helps you learn:

I hope it helps you! Obviously always feel free to ask, here or online in the community :D Aside from that I'm clearing you as Done with Lesson One and you're free to continue with the 250 Box Challenge, though I recommend definitely revisiting the Rough Perspective Assignemt at least as a Warm Up!

I wish you lots of luck and patience in the upcoming 250 Box Challenge and hope the links provided help you understand perspective a little bit easier.

Good luck and have fun!

-Lerin!

Hey hey, I think it would be best if you posted what you have under the 250 Box Challenge!

The people there will be able to help you way better than me, since English isn't my first language and I'm still learning as well :D

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. 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.
