Hi,

Just posted lesson 1 homework, please give me some feedback what needs improvement, and also please let me know if I'm allowed to start with 250 box challenge. Also I'll be grateful for any advice.

Cheers,

Simon

Good job. Honestly nothing seems out of order. Maybe one little note for the organic perspective exercise: Remember that all sets of parallel lines in 3D actually converge towards a vanishing point in 2D. I'm saying this because some of your boxes in the organic perspective exercise seem to have parallel lines when they should be converging. You'll have plenty of opportunitites to get it right in the 250 box challenge though. So move on to that and good luck!

Next Steps:

250 box challenge.

Remember to not do them all in one go so you don't burn yourself out. It's not unusual for the challenge to last more than a month so take your time.

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
