Hi,

I'll be reviewing your submission today. Let's have a look at it :)

DIsclaimer: I will point out what needs to be improved on, so it might be negative-heavy, understand that you don't have to do perfect work, it's just so that you can be mindful of them when you practice them as warm-up. Everything not said is a positive.

Lines

• a bit of wobbliness for the curved superimposed lines, rest is good.

• Your lines in both the ghosted lines and planes are arching for the most part. When ghosting them, try to consciously arch in the other direction before marking. More lines for the ghosted line would be appreciated.

• Some of your ghosted planes are missing middle lines. Did you plot both start and end points for your initial lines and middle lines? I can't see them on any of the planes. You need to plot both start and end points for the ghosting technique to work, otherwise you're freehanding them.

• Lines are less (but still) curved in the box exercises, so I'll assume you have improved on the arching. More improvements will be made during the course of the box challenge and warmups.

Ellipses

• Ellipses are a bit wobbly on the table of ellipses exercise, aim for confidence over accuracy, doesn't matter if the other passes are not close to the first pass. Also, aim to do 2 passes for all your ellipses, some have 3 and more and that hinders clarity.

• Ellipses in planes are also wobbly and distorted, because you also aimed for accuracy. Ghost them properly and then mark in one single coordinated movement. You'll prevent yourself from adjusting by doing so, leading to more confident lines.

• Ellipses in funnels are all slanted, and wobbly for the most part. Same advice as above applies. Varierty of size is good, try to do some corner funnels as well next time.

Boxes

• Plotted perspective could benefit from more lineweight around the boxes in frame 1 and 3, or less lineweight for the perspective lines.

• Rough perspective boxes have alright convergences, linework is a bit wobbly and curved at times but not too significantly so. Some lines are drawn twice, no need to redraw them if you messed one line.

• Rotated boxes are way too small for the sake of the exercise, that's why you had a lot of trouble fitting even two rotations. Front faces could use more lineweight and sides of the boxes could be hatched for clarity if you were to redo the exercise with larger initial boxes. The exercise is supposed to be really difficult so no worries.

• Organic perspective boxes could benefit from more diversity in the shapes. A lot of boxes have diverging edges, which is fine for now but won't be in the box challenge (since they are not constructionally accurate).

• Some lines are drawn twice, no need to do so. Same goes with messed up boxes, no need to hatch them, let the reviewer see the mistake to better help you.

Conclusion

While your ellipses are a bit wobbly, I believe you will have ample time to practice them during your warmup sessions for the box challenge. The boxes are good enough to not hinder progress during the box challenge, where you will have ample time to practice them and reinforce both your linework and your boxes. Be really mindful of the curved lines, because these will make it more difficult to properly assess the perspective. If you feel that you need a bit more practice for the lines, you can do a page of ellipses in planes, but you can directly move on to the box challenge as well.

I noticed two things:

1. in the superimposed lines exercise you tend to overshoot at the edge of the page, work on this.

2. rotated boxes need more work from your side.

Otherwise i liked how the rough perspective exercise turned out.

Hi there

What I notice is

Your elipses seem distorted as you try to force them to reach the edges, your better off practicing the real shape of the elipse even if that causes you to miss the edge your aiming for.

In Organic perspective boxes the lineweight seems heavier on the boxes that are further away & at times on random internal lines. This particular exercise doen't specify to increase the lineweight of closer boxes however it does mention varying pressure for the swooping line you follow & you can see in the example homework how the lineweight is heavyer for the closer boxes. I believe it could help create a more convincing illusion of space if you were more mindful of your line weight
