Thank you for your critique! I have a few questions though. Firstly, what do you mean when you say on my funnels exercise some of them are not aligned with the y-axis? My second question is can you explain further the problems you noticed on the lower layer of my rotated boxes exercise? Thanks again!

Sure!

Some funnels(especially the ones on the end (the biggest ones) aren't symmetrical to the Y-axis so basically the line in the middle.)

When it comes to the lower layer : comparatively to the box in the middle each upper layer to the left and to the right and up and down should have a smaller and tilted surface. The lower layer should obey to the same principle. For Example the box next to the central one on the right has a correct perspective on the upper layer cause it starts next to it so it has the same length on the edges and then gets thinner with distance cause of the rotation(objectively it has the same size but because of the perspective(the rotation)it look smaller and you draw it as if it was smaller)), but you drew the lower layer as if it wasn't rotated at all - as you look further to the right it also should get thinner, but instead it keeps the same length. Do you get it, or was this explenation to convoluted?

Thanks that cleared things up for me! I will work on improving those areas.

Hello! Your critique of my lesson 1 submission was very useful, would you mind critiquing my 250 box challenge submission too please?

Hey! I haven't completed it yet myself, so I'm not really qualified...besides, there seem to be a lot of submissions, so I don't think you're getting your critique..neither am I once I'm finished with my boxes. I think I'll just become a patron and send it for an official review.

The Art of Brom

The Art of Brom

Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.

The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
