Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
5:15 PM, Friday March 4th 2022
hi ! i'm not very confident about organic perspective ex i've done, for rotated box too but on this ex i think i understant the purpose of this one :)
Thank you !
hi Lawky! i'm Koyomi and i'm going to review your lesson 1 submission.
first, let's talk about the submission in itself. your photos are nicely taken, pretty good lighting, no shadows and well framed but the quality of your camera is pretty bad.
it shouldn't be a problem here just know that you're less likely to receive feedback with a bad camera quality so if that's something that you can improve i would highly recommend that you do!
1. lines
-your lines are looking pretty nice! i can notice some arching in the ghosted lines/ghosted planes exercises, it can be fixed by trying to arch consciously in the opposite direction.
2. ellipses
-your ellipses are pretty good too, on the ellipses table exercise i notice some ellipses that overlaps each other, remember to keep them within their bounds, they should touch each other without overlapping. same with the funnels exercise!
3. boxes
-on the rotated box exercise, some of your boxes aren't rotating.
your organic perspective exercise is not too bad, just try to think more in therm of depth, what's in front and what's behind and don't be afraid to overlap your boxes in this exercise
Next Steps:
move on to the 250 boxes challenge, good luckk!!
Thank you !
i really agree with koyomi that your lines and elipses are great !!! but when it comes to rotated boxes i see some mistakes like his boxes are not rotating they are out of perspective maybe he needs to give it a try again for rotated boxes
so the key is use the neighbouring edges bro and as the boxes rotate the vanishing points are also getting closer to each other and they are along the horizontal line and that's what makes them look rotated
i just want you to give a try again for rotated boxes ok
Next Steps:
1 rotated boxes
i will try again this ex tommorow thank you!
hi, sorry this try is worst than the first you see :(
i understand my mistakes, better than nothing
no problem just move on to 250 boxes
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
