Some of these are very messy. I apologize for the many line corrections (sometimes I can't help myself), and the poor lighting in certain the images. I hope they are viewable.

It's been a long time coming, so I'm happy to finally get these submitted. Critiques and advice are greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

Hello! Congratulation on finish the work and reaaady for some feedback! :D

1/ Extending the lines:

Halfway through the homework, one thing I noticed that you consistent in doing is extending the lines away from the Y. That is such a great thing. Sometimes you also extended in the wrong direction, but don't worry, mistakes are made to learn!!

2/ Divergence and parallel lines:

From the beginning of the homework, I noticed that a lot of your line are mostly parallel or divergence. It's not the bad thing, but we want to have sure that it has a little bit of converge so it won't look distort. However at the same time, we can't be perfect on drawing and even master have this parallel and that divergence too. So I would say you did a great job in this! Final thing to note: some of your boxes are converge in pair, which it's fine, but we want to make sure it all converge together. Here is the tips from DAB that I recommend you should take a look at to perfect up your boxes: https://imgur.com/3zoQA65

Here is what the box should look like when I say all pair should be converge: https://i.imgur.com/8PqQLE0.png

3/ Hatching lines:

You hatching lines are really good. Mostly they fray on 1 side, some are frayed on both side.

4/ Lineweight:

You didn't put on lineweight at first but from the thirty-ish boxes you start to add on. Remember to always put on lineweight :)

5/ Wobbly lines:

Almost every boxes are draw with confident, so there are no wobbly lines :)

I saw a lot of improvement from the 200 boxes: boxes are more converge and it start to make sense in 3D way. I'm very proud of you and keep working on being the best version of yourself ;)

Next Steps:

You should head toward lesson 2!

Thanks so much for your feedback and the work you do for this community! Overall I feel I have a better understanding of 3D space from doing this challenge. I'll keep working to improve on the areas discussed (especially line convergences).

Thanks again and happy drawing! God bless you.

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

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.
