Hi!, and congrats on completing this lesson! Let’s look through it~

The lines look good. The ghosted lines in the ghosted lines exercise aren’t quuuite as confident as we’d like, so be careful that you’re not getting so caught up in priority #2: accuracy, that you forget all about priority #1: confidence. That said, this improves nicely by the time you reach the ghosted planes, and is rarely an issue in the rest of this submission, so it seems like you’re on top of it- nice job!

The ellipses look good, too. I’d recommend rotating around them 2 times, rather than 3, if you can. Also, seeing how their initial rotation is often a little bumpy, and then they stabilize, I’d recommend increasing your ghosting time, and not committing to an ellipse until you’re confident it’ll come out well. And, when you do, don’t panic! xD

Finally, the box section looks really good! Be careful not to redo lines, though. That is, not to correct an incorrect line. It’s a bad habit, and all it does is scream the presence of your mistakes. If you need the line to be correct, to, say, use it as a reference for the next line, feel free to correct it using a red pen. Anyway. Though the back faces of the boxes in the rotated boxes exercise don’t rotate as much as they should, and though there’s the occasional diverging box in the organic perspective exercise, this is a solid, solid section, and a solid submission, too.

Congrats on finishing, and best of luck in the challenge!

Thank you so much for the review Benj!!

I'll definitely have to step up my ellipse game and I should also stop correcting my lines. ^-^"

Thanks again! :D

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
