Hello and congrats on completing lesson one. My name is Rob and I'm a teaching assistant for Drawabox who will be handling your lesson one critique. Starting with your superimposed lines these are off to a fine start. You are keeping a clearly defined starting point with all of your wavering at the opposite end. Your ghosted lines and planes turned out well. You are using the ghosting method to good effect to get confident linework with a pretty decent deal of accuracy that will get better and better with practice.

Your tables of ellipses are coming along pretty good. You are doing a good job drawing through your ellipses and focusing on consistent smooth ellipse shapes. This is carried over nicely into your ellipses in planes. It's great that you aren't overly concerned with accuracy and are instead focused on getting smooth ellipse shapes. Although accuracy is our end goal it can't really be forced and tends to come with mileage and consistent practice more than anything else. Your ellipses in funnels looks pretty rushed and you didn't even bother drawing through your ellispes here. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/11/drawingthrough This is just a reminder that you need to be drawing through EVERY SINGLE ELLIPSE you draw for all of these lessons without exception. With that said I'd like you to look over the Ellipses in Funnels section again and redo this page of the homework and make sure you are drawing through all of your ellipses. Your ellipses are off to a fine start but there's still room for improvement when it comes to accuracy so keep practicing them during your warmups.

The plotted perspective is done in one point perspective instead of two point perspective as stated in the lesson and video. So my recommendation here is to go over this entire section and video again and give this page another shot. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/plottedperspective Your rough perspective exercises turned out pretty good. You are getting a mix of confident linework here along with some wobble creeping back into some of your lines. This is probably happening because you are more concerned with accuracy now that you are constructing boxes and you are slowing down your stroke to compensate. Make sure you are ghosting your lines and drawing from your shoulder with confidence and don't worry too much about accuracy for now. You are doing a good job extending the lines back on your boxes to check your work. As you can see some of your perspective estimations were quite off but that will become more intuitive with practice. The problem here is that these were supposed to be laid out with three exercises per page as shown in the video and sample homework. Please check the example here. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/15/example So since I think you could use the practice anyways I'd like you to do one more page of this exercise with the correct layout. Also try and focus on confident linework.

Your rotated box exercise turned out pretty well.I think one thing that would have helped you here would have been to just draw this a bit bigger. Drawing bigger really helps when dealing with complex spatial problems. You did a good job drawing through your boxes and keeping your gaps narrow and consistent. You are running into a pretty common issue of not actually rotating your boxes in some cases but instead simply drawing them moving back in perspective. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/16/notrotating This is a great exercise to come back to after a few lessons to see how much your spatial thinking ability has improved. Your organic perspective exercises are looking pretty good. You seem to be getting comfortable using the ghosting method and drawing from your shoulder for confident linework which is great. I am noticing that you are redrawing lines on occasion which is destroying some of your initially confident linework and this is a habit you should try and get out of. Try and stick with the initial line you put down even if it's a bit off. Adding more lines just makes things messier and harder to read. Your box constructions are a bit of a mixed bag of some decent ones and some wonky ones here and there so the 250 box challenge will be a great next step for you.

Overall this was a pretty good submission that showed a nice deal of growth. Your line confidence and ellipses are both coming along nicely but I think you need to do make sure you read the homework instructions a bit more carefully. Once you get those revisions submitted I'll take a look and you can most likely move on to the 250 box challenge.
