The SuperImposed Lines:-

you seem to get them more often that theres no fraying at the beginning point. so well done with this one.

The Ghosted Lines:-

some of your ghosted lines have wobbling, and above all missing the point to point connection, so I refer you to this video for help -

https://youtu.be/YpXhR5w4VbY?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

The Planes:-

due to your ghosted line not being good enough, the problem bleeded into this section as well as you can see the wobbling from point to point while ghosting line and the ellipses are drawn over more than twice and have some wobbling.

but I see your drew some ellipses with confidence so that is good.

again refer to this video -

for ghosted planes:- https://youtu.be/gv6tufLJ7UY?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

for ellipses in the plane:- https://youtu.be/phfYmCZKc8U?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

Ellipse Table:-

here's a thing about this exercise, try making the ellipse more like ellipse than circle because the ellipse are very very much integrated into the future exercise you will do like in lesson 2 an onwards, so i would suggest draw this and ellipses in planes almost every day as an exercise 1 page each is enough and make sure not to rush over and try drawing over the ellipses not more than 2 times.

here is the video I would recommend to do along - https://youtu.be/bsjThiFfbGQ?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

Funnels:-

over all you did well here but somethings to keep in mind

  1. ellipse is always 90 degrees or perpendicular to the minor axis

  2. Minor axis shows the face of ellipse

  3. The ellipses in the middle have small angles meaning we see them less so they will be small or more squished and the outside we go of the funnels the more we see the ellipses meaning ellipses becomes big.

Video for reference:- https://youtu.be/Kg0LhSRxA-E?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

Rough Perspective:-

Again the ghosted line problems, but you actually were able to land the lines on the horizon line so well done on that.

if you can use different color for the lines towards the horizon line would be helpful to see properly.

Rotated Boxes:-

This one is well in general hard, but you did well with the allignments towards the vanishing point.

well again the ghosted line problems is showing here.

Organic perspective:-

well good enough I would say but things you need to keep in mind:-

  1. closer the object the bigger, and farther it is the smaller it is.

  2. Draw your boxes on the line you made not outside because you will clutter it too much

  3. ghosting properly before landing your pen on paper will help you more.

so heres:- the video for reference:- https://youtu.be/CSg1mdzYSlE?list=PLQzfPQVzjLdrWojiWIXmafboPte268aaG

Next Steps:

I will mark this as complete but for your own good do the ghosting lines, ellipse tables, ellipse in the planes everyday before you star drawing your next exercise being the 250 box challenge.

so good luck in your next challenge.

I couldn't find my colored pencils at the time but hopefully it wasn't too messy!! Glad I managed well enough though. Going to hone in a bit more on those Ghosted Lines, thanks Kev.

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
