Hi, sorry I burnt out. Now I am planning to get back, but not sure how to get back. Should I restart from lesson 1 or start from next task (250 boxes challenge)?? I have nowhere to ask this question.

Hello, sorry to hear that.

May it helps hearing that throughout the course I had some burn outs too.

It is important to understand how you want to challenge yourself and more important what's your goals + how much time you can/want really to dedicate to the lessons.

I started the everyday method following the course strictly but then something clicks.

I know that may one day I will be redoing it all may paying and being reviewed by 'Uncomfortable' himself.

Double work? Yup, for sure but at least I'm in line with my decision and fine with that.

I follow schedules only for important things, so more in this case, I'm not a person that will be aiming of an everyday thing plus as an already a self thought artist I want to improve my art but, for now, not professionally so maybe this method is not the best for me but in general I'm okay of doing it solo with the rollercoaster flow with its ups and down 'cause it's working for me.

The best will be following the thing as said but I think everyone has to find his own path.

Anyway, responding to your question, if it was max 3 months I think it will be okay of may doing like 50 boxes and then be back on for the review again but as 1 year passed by, if you really want to follow the course, it will be better restarting.

Wish you the best :)

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).
