Hi, Teh_stamper.

Congrats on completing this challenge you've done noble.

Well, I reviewed the boxes and I must say you put in alot of effort. Anyways, here are specific points I'll like to bring to your attention

  1. Lineweight:

This is meant to be used on the silhouette of the boxes and to show the 3D form of the box on 2D paper you tried well in this aspect, however a few boxes were superimposed on all lines not just the silhouette, an example is box no. 87

2 Extended lines and convergence:

This exercise dealt with boxes in 3 point perspective. To Cross check our work personally we are required to extend the 3 sets of lines away from the viewer and for this you did it well on about 249 boxes. I also noticed complete convergence on some sets of lines like box no. 3 on the LHS specifically

I'll advise that you include this in your warmups going forward and try to improve the convergence. This can be done by drawing a line while still considering the other 3 in it's set and imagining a VP on the page.

I must also include that you tried to apply rapid foreshortening which is well commended.

I appreciate the hatching on your boxes, hope you ghosted those lines too.

This exercise was tough but you're tougher you just had an opportunity to ghost lines over 3000 times.

Well done I'm marking this lesson as complete because I think you've grabbed the basics of 3 point perspective.

Next Steps:

Move on to lesson 2

Thanks a lot for taking the time to critique my homework.

I'll be including the excercise in my warmups as I move on to lesson 2. Thanks again.

Sketching: The Basics

Sketching: The Basics

A lot of folks have heard about Scott Robertson's "How to Draw" - it's basically a classic at this point, and deservedly so. It's also a book that a lot of people struggle with, for the simple reason that they expect it to be a manual or a lesson plan explaining, well... how to draw. It's a reasonable assumption, but I've found that book to be more of a reference book - like an encyclopedia for perspective problems, more useful to people who already have a good basis in perspective.

Sketching: The Basics is a far better choice for beginners. It's more digestible, and while it introduces a lot of similar concepts, it does so in a manner more suited to those earlier in their studies.
