You did a very good job on the lines section. In the ellipses in planes exercise, the ellipses are supposed to touch a little bit all 4 lines in a plane and even if it looks flat on the page there is still some perspective action there that I dont see in your homework but you'll improve your eye in time. In the rough perspective some lines are a bit wobbly.
In the rotated boxes and organic exercises you understood which plane is in front of the other ones so thats very good and important for future lessons.You did so good overall!
I would say continue to lesson 2 and do your best to draw from the shoulder. It takes time to build up muscle memory some days youll have very good lines some day not and it really holds on practice and patience.Good luck :)
Wow, I did not expect a critique to come in so soon. Thanks very much for having a look at my work. I appreciate the feedback and I'm practicing hard to draw from my shoulder. Your comment really motivates me. I'm doing the 250 Boxes Challenge before I move on to Lesson 2 and will remember your comments as I go through the exercises :)
You're very welcome Im so happy to hear my comment motivates you ^^
Hi Salty!
Good job completing lesson 1, but even tho the other critique said that you can move to lesson 2, I'll let you know that you must do the 250 box challenge before moving to that lesson.
Unfortunately I hadn't the chance to see this submission sooner, but if you already started lesson 2 I suggest you to pause it until you completed the challenge. Good luck!
EDIT
I didn't realize you actually answered the review with the correct next step. Nevermind then :D
Next Steps:
250 box challenge
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
