Hiya Tayrayz, let's have a look!

Lines

  • Your lines for the Repeated Lines exercise don't start at the same spot. Make sure the point where you start the line is precise.

  • Your curves in the Repeated Lines exercise are often jagged. Focus on making sure the flow is smooth.

  • For Ghosted Planes, many of your edges are quite wobbly. In this lesson, you should prioritize smoothness over accurately hitting the dot where you're aiming. Don't think too hard, and use your shoulder as much as possible.

  • Don't try to fix lines, even if they're terrible. That's not the purpose of the exercise.

Ellipses

  • Your Tables of Ellipses are quite jagged and loose. Try making the ellipses smoother by drawing loops from the shoulder in wide motions.

  • Your Funnels ellipses aren't of the same degree. Make sure they're the same shape, just different sizes.

Boxes

  • You Rough Perspective boxes aren't correctly traced. You're supposed to follow the edges facing toward the horizon to the horizon, not trace the corners to the VP.

  • Rotated Boxes looks amazing!

  • Make sure you're not going back over your lines to try to "fix" them. That only makes them look clumsier. Mistakes are okay!

Next Steps:

I recommend redoing the Ellipses in Planes, Funnels, and Rough Perspective exercises (1 each).

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

Hi again!

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. The rough perspective exercise is a lot better! You'll get much more practice with boxes soon anyway ;) Ellipses are still rough, but that might be due in part to the pen running out of ink. Keep on working at them, and draw some for warm-up if you have the time.

Next Steps:

I think it's time for you to take the plunge into the 250 Box Challenge!

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.

Clip Studio Paint

Clip Studio Paint

I've used a ton of different drawing and painting software over the course of my career, so I can say with confidence that what CSP offers is impressive.

The software is designed around drawing and painting, and it really shows. The brush engine is extremely dynamic, capturing a wide variety of stroke types and effects, making it easy to emulate traditional media if that's what you're after, while still being able to create very polished digital-style graphics.

It also provides a variety of features to make your life easier on a wide variety of projects - from speech bubble and framing tools for comics, to perspective and ellipse guides, to bringing in 3D assets to streamline the production process, to multi-page files, and more. At every turn, it puts the control in your hands, so you can focus on what it is you want to create.
