Hi everyone,

First of all, thanks for anyone who help critique my work.

I am really glad and satisfied that I finished 250 box challenge :)

Hope everything looks fine.

I think all your boxes are completely parallel ( I mean, not dramatically drawn) -which is nice, to certain point-. However, in that fight of "maintaining them not to dramatic" you sometimes diverge the vp, rather than going to the same. So, I'd recommend to draw a more dramatized boxes -it can help you to not stray from the vp-.

And I noticed that, in your last page, in the box on the left side of the box in the inferior right corner you extended the "vertical lines" wrong.

But the vp are fine overall (except for the thing I said above).

Good job, and good luck on lesson 2!

Next Steps:

Yes, go ahead to lesson 2. But maybe drawing a few foreshortened boxes when practicing can help. Keep that in mind!

Hello:

Thanks for your detailed and careful critique.

It is no need to rush to next lesson,

so I did one more page of the dramatized boxes (I suppose you mean foreshortening boxes). https://imgur.com/gallery/PCqSJm2

Hope this looks fine.

Great job! Either way, I'd recommend to, when drawing boxes overall, follow the same "degree" of foreshortening for the entire box. That way, you won't generate too many divergences.

Next Steps:

Go to lesson 2!

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
