Lesson 1: Lines, Ellipses and Boxes
1:37 PM, Sunday September 18th 2022
ignore the math in the background of some of the photos
Superimposed Lines
You have a bit of arching with longer lines but you took the time to align your pen at the start of your line, good
Ghosted Lines
You overshoot most of your lines, that can be fixed if you practice more on the sheet
Ghosted Planes
You overshoot a little bit
Tables of Ellipses & Ellipses in Planes
These are OK but quality of your ellipses decrease at your second page
Funnels of Ellipses
Good
Plotted Perspective
Good
Rough Perspective
You didn't complete some of your lines and a couple of them are wobbly due to hesitation, you'll practice them a lot in 250 box challenge
Rotated Boxes
This one is actually pretty good, well done!
Organic Perspective
Some of these boxes are not actually cubes, you drew some isometric cubes with no perspective but you needed to implement what you've learned from 3 pt perspective here. However your linework is quite good in this exercise
Next Steps:
Proceed to 250 Box Challenge
thank you so much:)
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
