I think you're getting the lessons, this looks like good work. On your first page of superimposed lines you had some fraying at both ends. That implies that you weren't putting your pen down on the same spot to start your stroke but you got a handle on that later on.
The ellipses look good but I would recommend doing them larger. Drawing both small and large ellipses now will help you out later on.
The organic perspective exercise is rough, but that's understandable cause this is lesson 1. Mine looked just as rough, if not worse lol. Just keep in mind that the most important thing about drawing a 3d box imo is that lines always converge towards a point away from the camera. If you keep that in mind and force yourself to stick to it, most other mistakes are forgiveable and things will look better.
I would recommend you continue doing the ghosted planes exercise to get your line confidence up. Don't make them all the same size, do them big and small and fill them with ellipses.
I will mark this as complete.
Next Steps:
Move on to lesson 2.
Integrate ghosted planes with ellipses into daily warmup
Good job finishing lesson 1!
Though I'll let you know that the next step suggested by the current reviewer is incorrect, and before going to lesson 2 it is required to complete the 250 box challenge first.
Good luck!
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
