Some lines were off the mark and have two pencil lines for error checking: one for the actual line, and one for the planned line. One is dashed and the other is solid to differentiate, but I did not apply a consistent standard for which was which. Excited for lesson 2!!!
Hi
Are your boxes... special? You marked them as NSFW.
Regardless, this is coming along quite well imo. Just a few things to bear in mind:
Your hatching lines. They look messy, because you do not ghost them as you should. Either use the ghosting technique for them, or do not use them at all.
You do not need to apply several lines for the checking method. Just one will do for each edge, no need to differentiate.
Your convergences are improving throughout the exercise - that's normal, and a pretty good thing honestly. You still display instances of convergence in pairs. That is to be avoided, make sure that all four lines converge.
You did a fair work of varying the rates of foreshortening.
This is looking good though, and you seem to understand what this is about.
Next Steps:
Lesson 2
I... did not know they were marked NSFW. I've used Imgur a grand total of two times. Thanks for the heads up.
RE hatching: I will admit to rushing there. I'll take that into consideration in the future!
Thank you for the feedback!!
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.
