Hello Groksar, I’ll be reviewing your 250 Box Challenge today.

First off, congratulations on completing the first hurdle of Drawabox. It’s definitely a long marathon, but the quality of work between the start and end pages really demonstrates overall improvement. Now let’s begin with the critique.

Things you did well:

• Lines confidence was definitely a major strength here as you practiced drawing straight from the shoulder. Construction lines are relatively straight, and you maintain confidence in your lines.

• Clear experimentation with orientation. This is a positive habit to carry forward and helps progress our spatial reasoning.

Things you can work on:

• Boxes often contain the same shallow foreshortening or similar shapes. When following the Y method, as long as the angles are more than 90 degrees, the length of the lines can be short or long (e.g., pizza or tall rectangular boxes). This is a minor nitpick, as you look comfortable with your ability to draw boxes. In future warm-ups, try experimenting more with rapid convergence and see how they change with different shaped boxes.

• Boxes come into issues with all 3 sets of lines being parallel and don’t converge towards the vanishing point. Whether it's gradual or quick, all lines should converge. It may be difficult to judge gradual convergence on shallow boxes, but we want to be aware of the vanishing point when estimating the angle to ensure lines aren’t parallel. https://imgur.com/8PqQLE0

• Hatching isn't a mandatory requirement, but generally, your line work tends to contain arcing, unequal spacing and doesn't always touch both edges of the plane. Preferably, we would like to overshoot and sacrifice some accuracy for consistent lines on both ends. Be mindful and perform the same level of execution as you would with any line. 

Overall, you seem to have consistent line and convergence accuracy. I'll mark this down as complete and send you off to Lesson 2. Good luck!
