Hello!! I hope everyone is having a great day ahead ^^ I've finally completed all lessons in lesson 1, and throughout studying the lessons, and practicing these exercises, slowly I could also see as well the progress I've made. It was such an incredible learning experience so far, and I look forward to learn and progress more.

Thank you so much for these lessons, additional notes, and practices! I truly appreciate the efforts and guidnace poured here.

I look forward for the feedback, and to continue studying, and growing as well! Thank you very much!

Hi!

The superimposed lines: Your lines are confident; therefore, they're shown without wobble in lines and arching lines. However your curve lines are a little bit wobble. I understand the curve lines are more difficult than the straight lines because we can't see it because of our drawing hand. Keep practicing it regularly.

The ghost lines: The line at the ending point are curved in some lines. Keep in mind that we don't want a curve on a straight line. We don't focus on the accuracy rather than confidence and straight. Practicing the ghost method before drawing.

Table of Ellipses : There are some ellipses are overlapped and not tucked each other.

The ghost planes and the ellipses in planes: I see your attempt to draw ellipses contacted to 4 corners. That's good triumph.

Funnel : They are quite symmetrical.

The plotted perspective : I don't get why you crosshatched some boxes. Normally we mark the plane with slanted lines from edge to edge as shown here. https://d15v304a6xpq4b.cloudfront.net/lesson_images/1e4a234c.jpg

The rough perspective : The point is that the width lines should be parallel to horizon and height lines perpendicular to horizon. Most of your lines are not straight. In this course, we have to ghost before draw. Don't be rush to draw.

The rotated box: For me this one is not easy. I went back to watch the video and draw after the instructor every line. And then its shape is better.

Tho organic perspective : In my opinion, you drew too much boxes until it becomes confused. The purpose of this exercise is to know about far and near object. The far object should be smaller than the near object to the viewer.

Next Steps:

1 Page of the plotted perspective: Draw the hatching lines (not cross hatching) of the front face of box nicely.

1 Page of the rough perspective: Draw the straight lines for the box and nice front face hatching lines.

1 Page of the organic perspective : Draw not too much boxes. Watch the way the instructor draw.

When you finish, reply me.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

It's lots lots better.

In the organic boxes, plz keep in mind that the nearest box of the viewer, the line weight should be stronger than the far end.

You need to have 2 agreements. I suggest you to go inside Discord, the lesson 1 channel and ask members to agree with these comments.

Good Luck!

Next Steps:

Move on to 250 box challenge!

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
