Yo, penmanship looking really nice and solid here, and it's good to see that you've kept up the error checking lines throughout the set. I do still think you have a problem with diverging lines quite a lot; it might be useful to do a few more where you exaggerate the convergence, as it seems when you attempt a near orthogonal box it goes awry quite often.

I agree. I still struggle sometimes with making lines go where i actually want them to go. thank you for the critique!

There seem to be quite a few very oddly cube-y boxes in here, which makes me wonder how much planning you do with each one. If your first dot will lead you to a weird box, it is totally fine and encouraged to make a new dot! Boxes like 221 and 222 have weird bases that make the back line super askew and with how even the rest of the boxes are-likely could have been solved by making a dot, checking it, realizing it was wrong, and then making a new dot. You mention that you struggle with making the lines go where you want them to go, but sometimes we can help by giving good starting and ending points for our ghosting in the first place!

Also there are a few boxes where the incorrect side is hatched. There are 3 valid sides of these 2 point perspective boxes for hatching and 3 invalid sides. The 3 valid sides exist between the "arms" of your initial Y as seen in the organic perspective assignment.

Overall it seems like most of the errors can be worked on in the future in your warmups, or can be solved with just a tad bit more planning.

That said though, good job for completing the assignment!

Next Steps:

Continue to work on your planning so that your lines will go where you want them to, and keep track of which sides are facing the viewer, and you'll be good to go! Good luck with lesson 2

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

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.
