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!

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
