Hi there! So I looked at your work and I can tell you are already grasping some of the important concepts of the lesson, but at points it seems as it was done impatiently. I will come back to this in detail as I go over your pages:
Lines:
• Superimposed lines: you’re fraying on both ends of the lines. This is a mistake, as you are supposed to ghost from one point to another, so fraying would be ok if it was only on the ending side. Really take the time to ghost from one specific point, as this will improve the confidence and accuracy of your lines.
• On your ghosted planes, some lines are arching, but it doesn’t seem like a general problem, more like there are some lines you made with proper care and others rather in a hurry. Try to aim to the former rather than the latter.
Ellipses:
• You seem to be reaching for points within the bonds and adjacent ellipses just fine. Try to draw through your ellipses tops 2 or 3 times, though, no more than that. Some look very thick and messy.
• Funnel page looks good enough.
Boxes:
• Your rough perspective layouts should be done with ruler until placing horizon lines, then without when you place the squares and draw the boxes. This will aid when drawing width and height lines, as they should be respectively parallel and perpendicular to the horizon line. Draw your lines ghosting and with confidence, and again, do not hurry!
• Rotated boxes are very good. As a practice for 250 box challenge, try to add lineweight by superimposing lines on the parts of lines that overlap.
• DO NOT scratch a line nor repeat it, no matter how off it is. Errors will occur, we just have to get used to it happening and work with them as we go.
Next Steps:
I reccommend:
-
Incorporate ghosted planes and table of ellipses to your daily warm-up
-
Add one rough perspective page (use ruler to define the layout of the page)
Just attach your revision in the reply and I will mark this lesson as complete so you can go on with 250 Box Challenge.
