hi

i'm here to critique you lesson 1 homework. congrats on completing this lesson.

lines

• starting off with superimposed lines, good job in keeping fraying mostly near the end and minimal at the starting point. the longer lines have more arching to them so try to conciously arch to the opposite direction, this is explained here.

with ghosted lines and ghosted planes section you seem to be plotting out the lines first which is good. some lines have the arching issues but you can improve these by following the method mentioned before. also use the shoulder pivot for each lines.

ellipses

• in tables of ellipses section some ellipses are a bit wobbly. we should aim here for even elliptical forms and confident mark making. some of the ellipses are placed snuggly next to each other and nice drawn over 2-3 times so well done.

with ellipses in planes some of the ellipses got a bit deformed as you tried to make them touch the four edges of the planes. the goal here is to get nice even elliptical forms. the funnel exercise is looking pretty good as you managed to keep ellipses aligned with the axis line in most cases.

boxes

• not much to critique in plotted perspective section other than you made some of the boxes a bit narrow and added no hatching lines.

i consider rough perspective one of the toughest to tackle in lesson one. you made the major mistake here with ignoring this rule. we're not suppose to draw the lines exactly back to the vanishing point. instead we should make a rough estimation towards the vp.

in the rotated boxes you're drawing over lines a lot. even if a line turns out a bit off keep it as is instead of trying to correct it, this only make things messier. the hatching lines should be placed using ghosting method and with bit more care. same goes for the lineweight.

in organic perspective section each lines should be plotted out with dots. you seem to be doing this some instances but the smaller boxes are looking free handed. also the same thing goes for the lines here as well, no drawovers.

overall, i'd say your attempt was pretty good. you'll continue to improve as these exercises will be part of the 15 min warmup sessions. so i'd recommend moving over to the 250 boxes challenge. good luck!
