Hello again.

Sorry for replying so late. I've been training for the 250 boxes challenge on April, 19th 2021and made a submission. You made me pass but I had some extra work to submit to officially clear the level. Unfortunatelly before I could submit I had to got to the hospital for a surgery.

Anyway I'm back to learn how to "draw a box" (and consequently a lot of things to put inside)

Here is the work you asked me a 5 box complement sheet

Here is the link for the previous complement ( 10 additionnal boxes)

and finally the link with the original submission ( around 70 page in total)

Thanks in advance for all your remarks and critics.

Could you resubmit that first page you linked again? The image you provided is too blurry for me to properly discern your work.

Thank you.

Of course!

I retook a picture of the sheet. Here is the link:

Thank you for the new picture. It looks like you are doing a better job of getting your sets of lines to converge towards their shared vanishing points.

Keep in mind, as you continue to draw more complex forms, you should be taking your time at each step of your construction to ensure that you are employing the ghosting method correct and constructing your forms correctly as well.

I noticed a few areas where the quality of your mark making dips and your lines appear less confident in many areas as well.

All that being said, you can now continue to lesson 2!

Good luck!

Next Steps:

Continue to lesson 2!

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

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.
