Congrats on completing your first biggest challenge on DrawABox! I'll be critiquing your work.

Good job on maintaining subtle line quality, though not all boxes seem to have it. I do recommend not making your boxes too big, else you end up taking too much space for one sheet of paper.

Your lines are extended in the correct direction, which is good.

In some cases due to the exposure of the images, it's hard to see which extended lines are which due to barely being able to see the colored lines, but its doable.

Some boxes tend to diverge away from the vanishing point, but it's far and few in-between. Here's a more clear guide to making better convergences: https://imgur.com/3zoQA65 when you decide to use this challenge as a warm up.

Overall you have a decent foundation of what to do, and can begin Lesson 2.

Next Steps:

Keep on practicing boxes as warm ups and feel free to begin Lesson 2.

Thank you so much for the critique! really appreciate it.

Sorry for the images with the extended lines being hard to see, I captured those photos in a rather dark-lit place and tried to fix the lighting by editing them.

I'll heed your advices as I incorporate the boxes in my warm ups. Thanks again!

With how saturated the market is, it is tough for such projects to get eyes on their work.

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
