Yes, I admit that those ellipses are a bit hard as there should be a balance between speed and the hand movement. I'm still trying to find the sweet spot to get the most out of it.

Now, having done the 250 box challenge, should I wait for critique? would you mind advising further?

Cheers,

hi, it's been awhile, sorry for responding too late. anyways for the 250 box challenge, for it to get critiqued, it's said that you should critique atleast 5 lesson 1 submissions after that you can then submit your submission or paste your link at the #critique-exchange in the discord so that it can get critiqued by the discord members of the drawabox community, if ever you haven't gotten critiqued yet.

cheers, loadsofskeptic.

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.
