Espero ter avaliações justas que me ajudem a melhorar. Thanks
Hello there, congrats on finishing lesson one, now on to the critique.
Lines
The superimposed lines are confident, There is only fraying on the ends, which is okay at this point. The ghosted lines too are confident, there are no wobbles, and they are straight. Ghosted planes lines also look good, nice confident lines.
Ellipses
The ellipses look confident. In the table of ellipses, they overlap the bounds on some parts and overlap each other on some parts. They should be touching but not overlapping each other. They should be touching but not overlapping the bounds/ walls of the table. Ghost your ellipses, ghost the ellipse where you want to draw it, when confident with the motion, draw it in. This will take out the guesswork of trying to change the size of the ellipse while you are already drawing it. Good work in the funnels exercise but I see a few gaps between some ellipses in the funnels, they should be touching.
Boxes
Plotted perspective looks solid as well as the rough perspective. Keep in mind that in rough perspective the vertical lines of the boxes are perpendicular to the horizon and the horizontal lines are parallel to the horizon. This well help you plot your lines.
Rotated boxes look good, tight-knit and plotted lines. I see the top right corner box was not drawn through. You should draw through all boxes.
Organic perspective looks good. Although on line weight, do not make it too dramatic, don't add a black bar to the whole line. Add the weight mostly to the part that overlaps, don't add it to the whole line and not such a thick bar.

Or if you look here on curved lines, they should be subtle and only to the part you want to emphasize or should its dominance for a lack of better words.
I think You can head over to the 250 box challenge, remember to use these lesson one exercises as warm ups. Good luck :)
Next Steps:
250 box challenge
will you take the critique in english ?
yes
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
