Hello Mitsos! Welcome to drawabox and congrats for completing lesson 1!

I'll be critiquing your homework today.

1.Lines

Your lines look good for the most part, with a reasonable amount of fraying. However, there is still quite a bit of wobbliness present, especially in the ghosted planes exercise. I imagine that is so since you seem to be focused on accurately going through both points. Plotting your points is really important, but it's also extremely important to remember to prioritize confidence over accuracy. I will be asking you to submit one more page of ghosted planes, please try and use your shoulder, ghost thoroughly and mark confidently and quickly, even if your lines end up missing or overshooting your points.

You will further improve your line smoothness and accuracy overtime, by doing exercises from this lesson as warmups later on.

2.Ellipses

Your ellipses look pretty great! There is a little bit of wobbliness here too but that's very reasonable. Just remember to draw through all of your ellipses 2-3 times and practice the same techniques used for your lines. You'll get to improve your ellipses through warmups overtime as well.

You seem to be missing one page of tables of ellipses however, and seeing as you've submitted the same funnels exercise twice, I assume that's where things went wrong? I would like for you to post that second page of tables of ellipses as well, so I'll add it to the revisions sections. Don't worry, you don't need to do it again if you have already done it, only post it.

Another thing I would like to mention for tables of ellipses, is you should aim to keep your ellipses close to each other without overlapping, and also touching the boundaries of the squares they're in, again without overlap.

3.Boxes

Your boxes look good and you seem to have understood the concepts of perspective.

There are a couple of things to note though.

• Your line quality has suffered quite a bit. You should use the same methods and effort for your line making as you did in the first section of the lesson. Use your shoulder, ghost thoroughly, mark confidently and quickly.

• There are a lot of instances of your repeating or correcting lines that you have already drawn. No matter how off a line is, you should never repeat it. This applies to all of drawabox, you should just keep the line as if it is correct and move on.

• In the rough perspective exercise, using a ruler or straight edge, you have to extend your own lines towards the horizon (preferably with a differently colored pen or pencil). What you have done is draw a line of a different angle to the ones on your boxes, so you can intersect with the vanishing point. That's not the point of the extensions, they should be there so you can visualize how far off your depth convergences are. The final exercise should look something like this.

I won't be asking you to re-do the rough perspective exercise from scratch, but I would like for you to use a different color (you can use ballpoint or pencil, or whatever you have really) and extend your actual lines with a ruler, towards the horizon line, and post them here again so I can confirm you've done it.

Overall you've done a good job with the rest, organic perspective and rotated boxes might look a bit wonky, but that's ok. You'll have plenty of time to improve in the 250 box challenge.

I'll be awaiting the requested revisions so I can mark the lesson as complete!
