250 Box Challenge
8:13 PM, Friday April 5th 2024
I'm way, way behind on getting this uploaded. These were all drawn before the recent overhaul of the 250 box challenge instructions.
1. Line extension
Line extension seems good enough overall
2. Divergence & Parallel lines
119 seems a bit parallel
3. Hatching
Hatching is a bit faint in some of the boxes
4. Lineweight
Overall lineweight is good enough
5. Wobbly & Repeating lines
Overall lines seem confident
6. Similar orientations
There's good ammount of variations
7. Inner corner
Most of the corners are maintained (despite some unevitable errors on the placement)
Overall you've grasped the concept & goal of the challenge.
Next Steps:
You can move onto lesson 2. Make sure to do these boxes as part of your routine exercise as well the lesson 1 stuff.
Thank you very much for your feedback!
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.
