Idea when stuck on form intersections in lesson 2.3 (first just try *plane intersections*, then boxes that are aligned)

5:24 PM, Wednesday December 14th 2022

So, first of all, I love this course. However, I drew a huge blank on the form intersections exercise, despite reading the instructions twice, watching the videos, and putting shapes on the page as directed. I literally didn't know where to put a single line. However, after some thought (and watching “Sketch with Peter Han ep5, minutes 10-22”), I came up with some pre-2.3 exercises that helped.

  1. Plane intersections: One was to draw pairs of planes and have them intersect and adding cross hatching to indicate what was visible. It was a stretch, but doable. I felt a lot more understanding after doing this simpler case.

  2. Aligned boxes: Try just intersecting one pair of boxes that align with each other. For a beginner, this actually takes a lot of thought as well.

Drawabox isn't the be-all, end-all of drawing fundamental education. Our approach prioritizes certain concepts over others, and while we believe it do so for good reasons, ultimately it doesn't appeal to everyone. If Drawabox simply doesn't work for you, give Proko's Drawing Basics course a try - at the very least, you'll probably find it to be a hell of a lot more fun.
