Hello BL4NK! I'm gonna be handling your submission today, so let's get right into it!
First, your lines. Your super-imposed lines are mostly pretty good, while there's some wobble in the first page, things have definitely improved in the second page and you continued your confidence in lines to the ghosted lines exercise. Your ghosted lines are looking good, but I notice that some of them are a little bit curved. It can be caused by not using the shoulder pivot, in that case, you can pay more attention to that. But it can also happen even if you used the shoulder pivot. This can usually be solved by consciously curving to the opposite side. Good work!
For your ellipses, it is clear that you have grasped every aspect of the lesson pretty well. But notice, there's some wobble in your lines in the ghosted planes - remember that confidence is much more important than accuracy in this lesson. The same is for ellipses, while your ellipses are pretty accurate, they show a bit of wobble sometimes. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, we're just building confidence in this period of time. Your funnels are looking good, and I can definitely see that you're actively trying to solve your confidence issue.
Finally, boxes. They are mostly good, and showed a grasp of the concepts mentioned in the lesson. However, your problem with your lines carried into the box section. I can understand that while focusing on solving these perspective problems, it's hard to keep your line quality, but still keep an eye on that. I noticed that you've repeated some of your lines - remember that you shouldn't repeat any lines in order to correct it. Just leave it there, it's an important mental ability in this lesson to cope with your previous mistakes. For rotated boxes, you showed an excellent understanding of boxes here. While you failed at some of your lines here and there, your work is extraordinary compared to other students. Great work! On your organic perspective exercise, you showed a decrease in line quality, and I can understand it - the exercise itself is already a pretty hard one. While you made some mistakes perspective wise, we will work on them in 250 box challenge, so no need to worry about that.
All in all, your work is very good throughout this lesson. For this, I will personally give you a pass on this lesson. Feel free to ask for agrees in the discord community and good luck on the 250 box challenge!
Next Steps:
Do the 250 box challenge.
Thanks! I'll look into these issues you mentioned, you've been very helpful. Better start with these gazillion boxes now hah.
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
