I would really appreciate it if you could critique my art
Thanks in advance for you time and effort!
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
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
