I'd like to know if I could move on towards Lesson #2 now that I've gone through Lesson #1 with, in my humble opinion, my best efficiency. I am open to do re-dos if it means I can improve ????

hi Buroba, thanks for submitting your work of lesson 1

i took a fast glance at your work and its pretty accurate, its amazing

at first at Super imposed Lines those are pretty sharp and accurate, the only part that i see some wobbling its at the ultra long lines but for the rest they are super impresive, good job, really

on the gosted lines exercise i dont see them, maybe you forgot to upload them

at ghosted planes same, i see your lines are pretty straight, i dont see any problems in them, so good job

at tables of elipses they are following all of the steps required plus they are really sharp and accurate, but some of them are overlapping, the small ones specially but that problem seem to disappear with more practice and confidence you got trought the excercise

at elipses at planes the shape of the elipses are actually pretty sharp, and you seem to be following all the steps i dont see anything bad at them more than the occasional ones (some overlapping or some gaps at the edges), but in general, they are pretty sharp

at funnels, you need to draw the minor axis, but it seems that the others points are alright even the centers are align with the major axis, i dont think here its necessary to redraw anything, just try to dont skip any step

same with plotted perspective, i dont see anything wrong with them, so good job, it was pretty sharp

rough Perspective, they are good, everything seem alright, its kinda amazing to see your improvement, at the end almost all lines were really close to the center, just some wobbling at some boxes but its ok, dont worry

on rotated boxes, youre drawing trough each box and draw all the boxes plus their gaps are consistent and the boxes are pretty sharp, i dont see any errors in this one so good job

and at organic perspective everything seems fine, and almost all the boxes are in a dramatic foreshortening, its amazing

your work really amazed me, good job :3

i hope my review helped you, also pardon me if you didnt understand something, english isnt my first lenguage

Next Steps:

please upload the gosted lines exercise

Hey I appreciate the comments Uwuless. For a non-native English speaker I'm glad that you were able to properly display the concerns and strengths you had seen in me.

Thank you for pointing out my mistake of not submitting the Ghosted Lines haha. I've made a new community post here (https://drawabox.com/community/submission/0GDUAPBH), and I'd be grateful if you could take just a few minutes to just check out my Ghosted Lines too...?

And while I appreciate all the kind words of praise and compliments you have given my exercises, could I take it that you would be alright in having me progress towards the 250 Box Challenges?

Thanks for responding!

i personally think that youre ready for the 250 box challenge, but i saw another send you some corrections, and those seem pretty acurate so i would recommend you to complete those first :3

Hey Uwuless, I can't thank you enough for the comments you have given me. I've done the exercise Kort3 sent out for me to do, reflecting on my understand of the exercises, as well as considering your words as well, manifesting in this result of my re-do's.

I hope it's not too much of a problem, but I'd like to know if you could go to Kort3's post on this submission here (https://drawabox.com/community/submission/0GDUAPBH) and agree with his critique to mark me as complete for Lesson 1, sending me on my way towards the 250 Box Challenge. I need two people's approval to mark me done with Lesson 1, I have received the approval of Kort3, another kind user's aproval on Discord, and now I all I need is your approval. I am trying to do DrawABox as officially as possible is all. I'd simply like to earn my badge that marks me done with Lesson 1.

Thanks for reading, once again, thank you for you help!

Orconomics by J. Zachary Pike

Orconomics by J. Zachary Pike

This is one of my favourite books. It's a fantasy-comedy romp, and the world that J. Zachary Pike has created honestly takes my breath away. There are laughs at every turn, but the story is not without its heart wrenching moments - some for which I have yet to fully forgive the author.

If you're at all curious about the kinds of nonsense I read, or just need something new to sink your teeth into, this is one I can highly recommend. On top of that, being self-published by an indie author, it's the kind of thing where your individual support can go a long way.

P.S: The audiobook, with narration from Doug Tisdale, is especially good, and elevates the story in ways I can't rightly describe.
