I've been doing the 250 boxes challenge inconsistently for months. I started doing it at mid December then stopped doing it at February due to personal problems then I did it again at March. Been doing it inconsistently like 1-2 times a week I guess. I already did 160+ box but I feel like I want to restart since I've been doing it inconsistently.
No, I don't think you should restart it. The box challenge is something plenty of people spread over a long period of time. You are by no means expected to hammer it all out in a short span, nor are you expected to grind at it entirely consistently. And honestly, 1-2 times a week sounds pretty consistent to me.
I was thinking of restarting it because my definition of consistent for me is like 6 times a week w/ breaks on Sunday. I didn't even think that 1-2 times a week is also consistent. I've been thinking about it for the past few days that is why I've been hesitating to continue it. I will be starting to do it again today. Thanks!
Do the 250 box challenge along side the next videos. The challenge is not about completing it its what you learn while doing it, a person that draw all 250 boxes in a day or week doesn't gain as much as a person that does it in 3 weeks or a month. So take your time and do at least 10boxes with correction a day. And the matter of taking a break for a whole day is probably not right, 30minutes everyday is better than 2 whole days working and 3 days break.
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.
