Hi Xmrln,

I've checked your submission,

Okay, it looks that you got the idea of this challenge, as you progress through the lesson you can see that you boxes get bigger and more confident, hitting more your convergence. The only thing I would like to see more is you rotating more your boxes in more positions, though it's not crucial, you learn a lot from this.

I saw that you struggle a little with the back corner (welcome to the club) so here is something that will definitely help you out with that:

Use this whenever you are gonna warm up with some boxes, give it a shot.

Another thing that caught my atention it's how you used line weight during the challenge. You kind of only apply it on the bottom corners of every box and very visibly. The idea of line weight is that is a communication tool for us to show something to the viewer, that is why it has to be more subtle and, in this case, has to be all around the outer edges of the box.

I'm gonna mark this challenge as completed! Keep it up.

Next Steps:

Move on to lesson 2!

My pleasure! I'm glad you found it usefull.

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef

PureRef

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.
