Thanks Konstantin!

That's really useful. I can see going back to my pages that I struggled with accuracy. I agree I probably rushed some things.

I'm not totally sure what you mean by this:

"In organic perspective it really stood out that in first panels on both pages you stepped away from your curve."

If you can say more about that maybe I can understand .

I found organic perspective really hard because I couldn't draw through the boxes, and overall that lesson felt confusing for me - I wasn't sure what I was trying to achieve (I'll go back and read the material).

In any case, I'll work on 2 more pages of Rough Perspective and let you know when I'm done.

Thanks!

Here I tryied to show what I mean (Hope the imgur link works)

There is chance that I didn't understand your path/curve the way you intended. Yet it looks to me that on the first page you accidentally jumped from one area of curve to another. I tried to convey the way I see your paths in 3d space with different weight of red line.

Hope that makes it clearer. If not - ask again.

Don't worry about organic perspective exercise though. It is mainly just an introduction to a spacial problem that we will have to solve much later.

You're welcome!

Thanks Konstantin,

The imgur link worked. That makes perfect sense now! I see what I did wrong there.

Still working on the re-do of rough perspective. Trying not to rush it :)

Cheers.

Hi Konstantin, I've re-done the rough perspective exercise:

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Staedtler Pigment Liners

Staedtler Pigment Liners

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).
