I took a break after doing the rough perspective(So the rotating boxes and organic perspective where done after I came back) . and before, ghostedlines where pretty hard but when I started again they become a bit easier. I still have to improve tho but it was cool to see
Hello, I will be critiquing your lesson 1 :)
Lines
-First of all, your superimposed lines are off to a great start. I do see that some of them are a bit arched, but with further practice this shouldn't be an issue. Overall, your lines look rather confidently excetuted.
-Ghosted lines are looking very confident and it is great to see that you kept a consistent trajectory.
-Your ghosted planes are similar to your ghosted lines, but I do see that some of the lines are less confident than others. This of course should also improve later on.
Ellipses
-Your ellipses do look a bit wobbly so I would make sure not to rush this part. Another thing I would like to mention is that they are also unsymmetrical. You should always aim to make the edges well rounded and even at both ends.
-In regards to what I said above, you should alway aim for symmetrical and well rounded ellipses. It seems you did a better job at this and I'm sure that you will improve with practice.
-The funnels excercise will also follow the same rules I stated earlier. I see that you kept in mind what the sizes of the ellipses would be, but they are a bit uneven with the alignment. Overall, I think these excercises will get better over time.
Boxes
-For the rough perspective I see that your lines are less confident and your estimated for the vanishing point are a bit off, but this wouldn't be too much to worry about.
-In the rotated boxes excercise, you did a good job at committing to your lines compared to the rough perspective.
-Lastly, your organic perspective is looking a lot more confident and I don't have anything further to point out.
*Any other issues you may be having in the box section will be addressed in the 250 Box Challenge.
--make sure to use the entire lesson as warmups
-I'm going to mark your lesson 1 as complete, good job :)

While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
