I'm back!!
I have taken some time to rest, retrain and be able to feel more comfortable with other aspects of art during my definitive path.
I have practiced several times in order to show again my tasks that have been entrusted to me, and here I want to present them ready.
Thank you very much for the task that you left me, I have noticed an improvement in the aspects that you have pointed out to me and I feel ready for the next challenges.
It is good to hear from you again. I saw your messages on the discord and I know you took a 3 month break, so you may be a little rusty after that time. Anyway I’ll go over some things that you need to keep working on..
Linework
-Your lines are looking confident which definitely helped your boxes look more solid and believable but I notice a tendency to repeat your lines, remember that if you make a mistake you should not try to correct it by drawing on top of it. By getting rid of this habit you will develop the patience necessary to do your assignments to the best of your ability.
-It is nice to see that you are using hatching and it is looking tidy rather than rushed, but you could definitely try to be more tidy with it, remember that each line is no less important for being part of a larger group, so give each one of them as much attention and focus as necessary.
-Lastly I want to talk about lineweight, it is not a necessary requirement but it is important that you get used to it, the thing to keep in mind is that you should be very subtle with it and only add one extra superimposed line. I also want to quickly redirect you to this diagram which shows how to apply lineweight correctly.
Box Construction
-My major concern here is that you are not drawing the extension lines for your boxes, this is one of the most important steps as it lets you check your convergence and you will be able to identify the mistakes you are making. But I will try to make a list of the things you should try to look for.
-Another thing you should look for are lines converging in pairs as shown here, if this issues shows up in your work you may want to take a look at this image which explains the relationship between each pair of lines and the angles they form respective to their vanishing points..
Those are some of the things you should try to avoid, you will never get rid of these mistakes but they do tend to diminish with practice. Anyway you still have some work to do so I’ll leave you some additional work, I know you have drawn many boxes by now but it is important that you take your time and read the instructions carefully, don’t rush things,
Next Steps:
After you have drawn the extensions for all of your boxes I want you to do the following
-Draw 30 more boxes, I want you to spread them out over the course of some days, ideally you want to draw 5-10 boxes a day. Additionally, you may want to read and watch the lessons and the instructions again, starting from lesson 0, as there have been some updates. Good luck.
bro you need to extend the line to find the vanishing point anyway could you also take a look at my 250 boxes ??? https://drawabox.com/community/submission/LVP3J18
These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
