Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
1:39 AM, Wednesday July 8th 2020
This is my first leasson from draw a box. It was quite frustrating sometimes, because I thought I knew how to draw this things, however I was deeply wrong. I will keep going :)
Keep up with the work! Overtime you had better linework but get some practice on it during your freetime would be pretty helpful, either with drawing something you want or using something like drawpose and restricting yourself with only circles and line usage.
~Still a beginner, just spending some time to look at some work.
Thanks mate!
Hi overall good job and congrats finishing first lesson :)
Lines
Lines are looking p good overall, though they do get a bit wobbly sometimes, so don't forget to keep working on them.
Ellipses
Ellipses are a bit wobbly at times. Remember that in ellipses as well as lines you should try to do them as confident as you can, don't hesitate in sacrificing accuracy to get them smoother and more confident and keep working on them as well.
Boxes
Boxes are looking p good, though sometimes you miss perspective, which is completely fine, as you'll work on it in 250 boxes challenge.
Overall good job and keep it up ;)

Continue to use these exercises as part of your warm ups (about 10-15 minutes)
Feel free to move onto the 250 box challenge
Don’t forget to take breaks and draw for fun!
Also, now that you’ve completed Lesson 1, I encourage you to critique some Lesson 1 community submissions. Not only will this help the community, but it will also solidify and reinforce your understanding of the material. Of course, this is optional (but we’d be especially grateful!). If you’d like to give it a shot, see this guide that was created by one of our community members on how to go about critiquing Lesson 1.
FYI, the link to the guide doesn't seem to work ;D
Thanks mate! I really appreciate the review. I will continue working on them.
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
