Hello,
Sorry if the image quality and resolution isn't that great in some of the photos.
My biggest struggle with this lesson was taking my time with each line and not rushing but I'm slowly getting used to it.
Also don't hesitate to make me redo an exercise if you feel like it's needed.
Thanks a lot in advance for taking the time to review my work, it's really appreciated.
Greetings fellow Brawler!
I will be offering you a guiding hand! Hopefully, we can correct some mistakes (if you've made any). Let's have a look!
Lines
Superimposed Lines - Nice and confident lines, great work! However, I can see some lines that are fraying at the start as well, I had some trouble discerning the start and the end point. See here.
Ghosted Lines - Splendidly done here as well! Lines look really smooth and confident and seem to be hitting the end point quite steadily, I'm impressed. Only thing I would point out is that I counted a few lines (for example, see the right most line on the first half of your page) where the line is almost arbitrarily floating around. During the ghosting method, you should be airlifting the pen from the start point to the end point. See here
Ghosted Planes - Wonderful! The lines look really well made! Smooth, confident, accurate and ruler-like straight!
Ellipses
Tables of Ellipses - Ellipses are well kept within bounds. They could be a bit smoother, but for a beginner, they are really nice!
Ellipses in Planes - Nice job on the ellipses here. They touch the bounds steadily and are nicely smooth!
Funnels - Nicely kept within bounds, the axis cuts them into two symmetrical halves. Some could be a bit smoother.
Overall I would suggest considering adding ellipses into one of your warm-up exercises.
Boxes
Plotted Perspective - Well done! Nice.
Rough Perspective - Boxes keep hitting the vanishing point quite steadily and are generally nicely made.
Rotated Boxes - This one's a doozy, isn't it? For your first time, well executed!
Organic Perspective - Boxes nicely made, they look really solid and have a healthy amount of overlapping between them. Well done!
Overall I would say you nailed most of the exercises and definitely should move on to the 250 box challenge, which will refine your understanding even more.
I wish you good luck and steady nerves!
Next Steps:
Well executed! Next step is going to be 250 box challenge.
This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
