On the superimposed lines, your lines look very good, but your pen seems like it's running out. On some lines there is some fraying in the middle, but it doesn't seem major.

Your ghosted lines look pretty good. Trajectory and straghtness look good, it's a very good paper.

Your ghosted planes seem okay. There is some wobble, I suggest you to keep in my mind how important drawing from your shoulder is. But it doesn't seem major.

Your ellipses look pretty good overall, they're snug and drawn with confidence. But in funnels exercise, you should've drawn your curves with an object, not freehanded. Other than that, they're centered and snug. Very good work.

In plotted perspective, you should've put the vanishing points very far apart, so that the boxes don't distort too much. I'm not satisfied with that paper, so I'm gonna request a redo of that. Your homeworks look pretty good, you seem very good at drawing. It shouldn't be so hard of a homework for you.

Your rough perspective looks very good. There is some wobble in the boxes, but you can overcome that with some more confidence. It's not much of a deal.

Your rotated boxes look really good. Some boxes seem to be underrotated a little bit, but it looks alright overall.

In the organic perspective, boxes look like copies, especially on the second page. But you'll figure that out in the 250 boxes challenge.

Overall you seem pretty good. You seem like you figured out the technique pretty much. I'm only going to request a revision of plotted perspective, because it's an important exercise to understand perspective. Very good job. Keep up the good work!

Next Steps:

I'm requesting a revision of plotted perspective homework. Put the vanishing points as far away as possible to minimize distortion, and you'll be good to go.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

Thank you for all the corrections. I have redone the plotted perspective exercise (sorry for the faded lines all my pens are dying at the same time).

I will continue with my exercises and lessons with tenacity and determinations.

Thank you for your time.

Redo looks pretty good. I'm marking this lesson done. Keep up the good work and good luck with 250 box challenge!

Next Steps:

You seem to be doing pretty good. There are some small hiccups from time to time but I'm pretty sure you'll make it. Just don't forget to be confident and draw from your shoulder and it'll be more than enough.

Ellipse Master Template

Ellipse Master Template

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.
