Hello. My name is Seany and I'm here to critique your work today.
Lines:
1. Superimposed Lines
-Make sure that you're putting the tip of the pen only the starting line. You need to aim for the starting line having no fraying ends.
2. Ghosted Lines
- Your lines seems to be overarching. Remember to use your shoulder and try underarching your lines.
3. Ghosted Planes/Ellipses in Planes
-For your ellipses, make sure to tighten up your ellipses. But don't worry, it will take a bit of practice until you can make better ellipses.Ellipses:
1. Tables of Ellipses
- The ellipses are, I assume that the second page was your first page, should be next to each other.
2. Funnels
-Some of your funnels aren't symmetrical. They should have the same amount of ellipses on both sides. Also make sure that your ellipses are alligned. They shouldn't be slanted.Boxes:
1. Plotted Perspective
-A box on the third plotted perspective section is looking distorted. Make sure to put all your boxes between your vanishing points.
2. Rough Perspective
-Make sure your width lines are parallel to the horizon and the height lines perpendicular to the horizon. Also, you should be doing your extensions, especially the one box with the question mark.
3. Rotated Boxes
- Make sure you're drawing through your boxes because I can see some that are not.
Hopefully, I've done well with critiquing your work.Next Steps:
-I want you to work on 1 page on Table of Ellipses, and 1 page of funnels. Good luck.

Hi thanks for the critique totally didn't realise I had to send the revision I've since moved on to lesson 2 after finished the 250 box challenge
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.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
