Hey, sorry you had to wait a while to get your work critiqued.

  1. Your extended lines are good but I did notice some are coming towards the viewer, rather then away. To combat this make sure the lines are drawn away from the center dot in the initial 'Y' part if the box.

  2. The majority of tour lines are converging with a few divergences (this will go with time).

  3. I noticed in some boxes, such as: 3, 14, 140,152 you've shaded parts that would be on the inside of the box rather then the face closest to the viewer (this may be because there's alot of lines and it can get confusing xD). Your hatching is good over all, the majority are on the right faces and aren't going over the lines too much.

  4. I dont notice many wobbly lines in your work however, most of the extended lines have gone over the box lines which makes it hard to see them.

  5. The orientation of your boxes are different (which is good) you've done this by creating different length of the fist initial three lines/the Y, some are shorted and some are longe then others creating different lengths, widths and depths. Another way you've done this is by rotating the initial Y, some are faced up, some are upside down etc. I think to improve you could add different angles between them, most seem to be around 120° try making some a smaller or larger angles like 180° or even 90° (this is something to just keep in mind).

Overall I think you've done a great job, keep it up! Just keep practicing when ever possible to keep improving your boxes :)

Thank you so much! Right now I still draw boxes as a warm up exercise cause I also noticed some of the things you said. But once again, thank you for the critique. It was very very helpful! I'll make sure to keep it in mind as I get to my next lesson. Have a wonderful day!

That's sounds like a great idea, it's never a bad thing to keep practicing.

Glad I was able to help you, you have a fantastic day!

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.
