Hi friends, I need some precious advice.
I started the 250 box challenge almost 4 months ago.
At first I had a lot of free time, but as time went on, I had less and less.
So I made almost half of the 250 boxes until June, but I had to stop for work reasons and in 3 months (from June to now) I made something like 10 boxes ...
Now the question:
Is it better to start over or can I continue where I left off?
You don't lose the concepts, maybe you get a little rusty, but I think you can just continue and keep pushing, it's a challenge and you can do other challenges moving forward.
totally continue dude, keep moving forward and you'll make greater progress!
It has happened to me. It's better to move on. If you have followed the instructions throughoutly there shouldn't be a problem. Sometimes life happens.
Keep on truckin', man. Look back over what you have done & it will all come back to you. I love drawing those boxes. Looking forward to working on the cylinders soon.
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
