Hello again! I think there might be a problem with language so I think that the best is that I approach every single issue one by one, sorry if it gets tedious but this is the best way I can think to approach this, please be patient!

First issue is that you aren't drawing intersections between the forms you draw. The intersections are contour lines, that are on both forms at the same time. To make sure you understand I'll ask you to do is to draw the intersections between simple forms on the last 3 drawings you drew, here's one example .

Good luck and don't forget to ask any questions you may have!

Next Steps:

Draw the missing intersections on your last drawings

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

If so then take your time, you can do the homework on several days, just make sure you do your best to understand and don't rush it, if work is too hard and you need to spend 1 week per assignment then that's fine, don't be too harsh on yourself!

Can you find some of your other drawings? If you have a PC you can draw the intersections in paint, that works as well.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.

Steven Zapata's Secrets of Shading

Steven Zapata's Secrets of Shading

Some of you will have noticed that Drawabox doesn't teach shading at all. Rather, we focus on the understanding of the spatial relationships between the form we're drawing, which feeds into how one might go about applying shading. When it comes time to learn about shading though, you're going to want to learn it from Steven Zapata, hands down.

Take a look at his portfolio, and you'll immediately see why.
