Welcome to drawabox! I'm giuldzap aka Ferventinel, and i'll be handling your first ever critique on this website.
Lines
Well done! you maintain consistent confident lines throughout most exercises, and you don't repeat your lines even if some were inaccurate! Also, extra points for practicing curved lines in the super-imposed exercise.
Ellipses
Nothing much to say here, great work in drawing through them!
Boxes
Good job! You've maintained consistent great work throughout all of your boxes! It's alright to fail at doing the rotated boxes a little, but, here's a useful image guide that may help you out on it.
Also, bonus point for drawing through your boxes on the organic perspective exercise!
Overall, you're off to a good start! Remember to keep working on these exercises and getting better at them as 10-15min warmups before the main exercise. you're now ready for the crucible...
Next Steps:
... The 250 Box Challenge! Best of luck!!
Thank you for your critique!
I will definitely take a look at the guide
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.
