As explained on discord the lines that are supposed to converge only partially do so. Instead of all four lines of a set of parallel lines/edges, at best two converge to the same vanishing point in most of your boxes. Maybe take another look at the exercise description (or use the text to voice function at the top of the page to have it read to you) and consider the things I pointed out regarding which lines are supposed to converge. Try doing thirty or so more with that knowledge and then we can check again for improvement.

Next Steps:

I went into detail in our discord chat regarding what to consider already, but taking another look at what is described in the exercise pager or comfy‘s YouTube video on the matter also can‘t hurt.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

Hey there, sorry for taking so long to reply again. You seem like you are getting there, allthough the last corner (the one that would normally be hidden from view) is often still a bit problematic. Nonetheless I have marked the lesson as complete in case nobody else has done that yet (i sure hope somebody else did D:).

Next Steps:

Keep praticing your boxes from time to time. They are pretty important to construct almost anything as well.

This community member feels the lesson should be marked as complete. In order for the student to receive their completion badge, this critique will need 2 agreements from other members of the community.

Sketching: The Basics

Sketching: The Basics

A lot of folks have heard about Scott Robertson's "How to Draw" - it's basically a classic at this point, and deservedly so. It's also a book that a lot of people struggle with, for the simple reason that they expect it to be a manual or a lesson plan explaining, well... how to draw. It's a reasonable assumption, but I've found that book to be more of a reference book - like an encyclopedia for perspective problems, more useful to people who already have a good basis in perspective.

Sketching: The Basics is a far better choice for beginners. It's more digestible, and while it introduces a lot of similar concepts, it does so in a manner more suited to those earlier in their studies.
