Hi there, I'll be handling your box challenge critique.
The challenge was recently updated but as the disclaimer at the beginning mentions, we expect older versions to be submitted for some time. It's fine that you didn't follow the new requirements as you started before it was updated. I would encourage you to read/watch through the updated challenge however as it may help clarify/reinforce your understanding of the concepts throughout the challenge.
All of that being said, your submission currently just links to a single page. Reply to this comment with a link to the rest of your pages and I'll handle your critique as soon as I can.
I look forward to seeing your work.
Next Steps:
Submit the rest of your boxes please.
I am so sorry only one page came through.
I have all 40 pages entered into imgur but now I see that each page has its own "copy link" button. I don't see how to send all pages as 1 link. Do i need to send each page link individually?
Can I send the link(s) directly back to you or do I go to the bottom of the queue again?
Thank you
Copy the link from your browser's address bar. It'll probably follow the format imgur.com/a/ABCDEFGH. This is also demonstrated in the video on Lesson 0 Page 3, in the section where it discusses uploading your images to Imgur.
When you've got the appropriate link, be sure to respond to Tofu's original message (as opposed to this one) so he gets notified.
Thanks!
I hope this works
No need to apologize, people make mistakes and they learn. Just a matter of getting it figured out.
This link works, but that being said it seems like a bunch of the pages are missing. Seems there's 19 pages, most with 6 boxes each. So roughly half of your boxes are unaccounted for.
I'd recommend trying to upload them again, or uploading the missing pages into another album and submitting the second link, or maybe look into google photos/drive if you find it easier/preferred.
Next Steps:
Submit the rest of your boxes please.
After 26 it says to click the box for the remaining 26 pages. I hope I got it right this time.
Where the rest of my recommendations tend to be for specific products, this one is a little more general. It's about printer paper.
As discussed in Lesson 0, printer paper (A4 or 8.5"x11") is what we recommend. It's well suited to the kind of tools we're using, and the nature of the work we're doing (in terms of size). But a lot of students still feel driven to sketchbooks, either by a desire to feel more like an artist, or to be able to compile their work as they go through the course.
Neither is a good enough reason to use something that is going to more expensive, more complex in terms of finding the right kind for the tools we're using, more stress-inducing (in terms of not wanting to "ruin" a sketchbook - we make a lot of mistakes throughout the work in this course), and more likely to keep you from developing the habits we try to instill in our students (like rotating the page to find a comfortable angle of approach).
Whether you grab the ream of printer paper linked here, a different brand, or pick one up from a store near you - do yourself a favour and don't make things even more difficult for you. And if you want to compile your work, you can always keep it in a folder, and even have it bound into a book when you're done.
