Alright that's much better! Yeah the problem was that it didn't seem like you were drawing your depth lines towards the VP. It seemed like you were kind of just drawing parallel lines instead.

The dots thing isn't about drawing starting and ending dots for every line. The dot thing I was refering to was that after drawing the ending dots, you should check if the depth line actually goes to the vanishing point or not, and if you found that it was off, that you changed the ending dot to a new one, until you thought the dot was correct.

Then, after all that drawing the final line. I made an image that hopefully makes it a bit more clear.

Anyways, like I said good job! I think you're ready for the box challenge now. You can use this dot thingy on the box challenge as well so give it a shot there as well!

Don't forget to do your warmups from now on, make sure you keep taking your time with every line and good luck with the box challenge!

Next Steps:

250 box challenge

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Hi there! So I fell off the wagon last year and never completed the 250 challenge. I would love to continue the program. I do also need to reup my patreon membership.

Do I need to start from the beginning again, or should I start with the box challenge?

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
