Second attemp at finnishing DrawABox now with an ink pen instead of pencil. Also made sure to read the complete material this time around. First time submitting for review.

It was worth the wait~ This is, at least to my eyes, a flawless submission. I suppose I’ll mention that you shouldn’t correct lines (neither extend them if they stop short, not redo them if they miss the mark), but you only did this in one exercise. I’d also recommend using a plate, or something along those lines, for the funnels, but you managed just fine without it, too. Good job, in particular, on the organic perspective exercise. If I had the authority, I’d tell you to only do 100 boxes of the box challenge, but I don’t, so good luck in hell. xD

Anyway, I’m happy to mark this lesson as complete. Well done!

Next Steps:

250 Box Challenge

It’s a single page of superimposed lines though, lol.

Link the full submission in a reply to this, and I’ll look at it.

Oh, sorry for answering a little late. I´ve never used Imugr before and it´s my fault for not checking the link before submitting.

I hope I did it right this time and thanks in advance for reviewing my submission.

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef

PureRef

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.

When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.

Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
