My first post for this challenge got a wierd url for only the first page. Sorry for that, I still do not know what happened.

Anyway, many thanks in advance for your review!

Why is there no line extension from box 211 to 250? What happened there?

Next Steps:

Come back once you've done that then I, or someone else will provide a full critique.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

You are right WIFU4LIFU, those were missing.

I had a one shot chance to use a scanner of a friend, and had to take it.... but the last pages were still to do and we had no time anymore.

I will re-submit.

Thanks anyway.

Hi WiFU4LIFU,

I finally managed to scan the last pages with line extensions. Thank you for your review.

Here they are:

Alright. Sorry for the late reply. i don't check often but here's what i got. Looking through these boxes, a few of these could be bigger (140, 148, 178, 206-210, a few towards the end etc) to make use of the extra space on the page and because bigger boxes are more challenging to draw if boxes are too big it's better to just leave the page with more boxes in it then draw one small box on whatever space is left on that page. Heck, try two giant boxes on a single page if you want and don't worry if extensions collide with the boxes. The point is to see where you can improve, not the make pretty boxes. I can't tell whether the lines are superimposed or whether these are just repeated lines 167 174-175 193 etc. Box orientation is pretty good. Back lines are not too big an issue but here's a diagram in case you need help with converging lines more consistently.

Good job overall! You're improving and your boxes are looking solid towards the end. Congrats on completing the challenge!

Many thanks for your review and time WIFU4LIFU!

Loved the diagram you indicated. I will remember it on the coming way. Also, I will try drawing some big boxes from time to time to get beter on close-ups.

Again, many thanks !

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.
