Hi!

Thank you for your critique!

Here is the homework, the plus 15 boxes with shallow foreshortening and hopefully better convergence.

I have to say, shallow foreshortening is hard. :) Nevertheless, I tried my best, even in box 11, where I got confused with all the things I wanted to correct.

Thank you again, hope I can step forward in the lessons. :)

I'm so glad you were able to complete the assignment!

And, you're right. The shallow foreshortening is difficult at first.

But you will be able to notice an improvement in the solidity of your boxes.

Regarding convergence, the pair issue is still there but it is diminishing,

By being aware of it and correcting it when you can, you'll be fine...

I will mark your task as complete. Good luck in what's ahead!

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. 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.

I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
