Oh that is what you meant by moving to the next step, I might've gotten little confused.

It's been about a week since I gave the critique, so I was expecting the revisions along with any comments. And because they were not here, I came to conclusion that you didn't read that end part.

My mistake honestly, good luck on the revisions!

Also I see that you did cylinder challenge, how was it? I'll probably do it after lesson 5(where I'm right now) but I'm really afraid on how it will go, since my ellipses in planes are really bad.

No problem !

Honestly this was kinda hard getting back into Drawabox after 2 months, I felt a little rusty.


The cylinder challenge for me was really helpful and a bit scary at first too, my ellipses weren't on point so I did not know how my cylinders would turn.

  • For the first part, constructing cylinders around an axis only allowed my ellipses to gain a lot more confidence and also some precision. I also gained confidence building what looked like "accurate cylinders" to me.

  • The second part was a lot more time consuming and difficult for each cylinder, but it made me realise how innacurate my previous cylinders were in comparison with the one constructed with more precision.

    • Honestly this part was really boring to me but it helped for sure on precision and how an actual cylinder could/should look like.

    • I think this will help my future cylinders built around an axis to look more believable !


Anyway thanks and good luck with the challenge !

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
