LINES

You done a good job with the line exercises, I have nothing in particular to critique here.

ELLIPSES

  1. Ellipses lacks confidence and smoothness

-From the first two ellipses exercises you seem to have stuggled with forming confident and smooth ellipses, though on the third exercise you're ellipses improved. I still highly recommend doing them as warmups to keep that consistency and improve more

  1. Ellipses going out of bounds

-You seem to be rushing you're ellipses, you seem to have ghosted them though, I think you maybe going too fast in executing them resulting to some of you're wild looking ellipses. I recommend you try to strike a balance with the speed of you're execution, if that's ever the case.

BOXES

  1. Unfinished box in the rough perspective exercise

-You seem to have gave up with one box there, I furiously recommend you always finish what you started, despite knowing that it will fail or sucks, It's simply a good habit to have.

  1. Some width lines are not parallel to the horizon and some height lines are not perpendicular to the horizon in the rough perspective exercise

-I noticed some of you're lines going to different directions, making the boxes breakdown into a slanted figure, I recommend you ghost you're lines more.

  1. Boxes inconsistent lineweight

-At thge organic perspective exercise you struggled with adding line weight, I recommend you do the superimposed exercise as a warmup.

Overall good job! Congrats in completing lesson 1!

Next Steps:

Do the 250 boxes challenge, do some warm-ups before each drawabox session, and critique other submissions (their a great way to contribute to the drawabox community and review some drawabox concepts)

This community member feels the lesson should be marked as complete. In order for the student to receive their completion badge, this critique will need 2 agreements from other members of the community.

Hi, thank you very much for the criticism!

About ellipses: I've been using them as a warm-up and during them I've been paying more attention to the speed that I do them.

Boxes: I had a lot of difficulty with them, I will work more on them throughout the Drawabox

I am extremely grateful for the criticism

How to Draw by Scott Robertson

When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
