Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
7:56 AM, Wednesday November 30th 2022
I'm excited for this little milestone, although it took longer than expected I'm finally done with lesson 1.
Any critique will be much appreciated ????
Hello, I will be critiquing your work
Lines
-starting with your superimposed lines, I see most of them are confident but some are wobbling especially the curved and longer lines and you should prioritize flow over accuracy. I can see in the longer lines you are leaving some lines in the middle but after starting a line take it all the way and then move on.
-In your ghosted lines the initial lines are a little wobbly but when moving down they are looking confident.
-Ghosted planes are looking a lot better and I can see that you commited to the linework here a lot better.
Ellipses
-most of the ellipses in funnel exercise are turning out better. I think you would benifit from doing a little extra practice with your ellipse exercise when you do warmups.
Boxes
-your rough perspective is turning out nicely, but I see that the estimations for the vanishing points are a bit off. This should also improve with practice. Also edges of some boxes are looking a bit wobbly so you should put more time ghosting them.
-lastly the organic perspective exercise is looking confident and I see that you attempted the rotation of the boxes.
Next Steps:
I'm going to go ahead and mark your lesson as complete and you can move on. Good job :)
Thank you so much for taking out time to offer critique. I can't wait to have fun with the 250 box challenge
Glad to help.
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
