Hi Hymnodi, I'll be critiquing your submission.
Lines
You've generally drawn the lines in the first exercise well but a few of them are slightly wobbly. Remember to draw from your shoulder and draw the lines without hesistation. Fraying at the ends isn't a problem, as you will improve this naturally just by practicing.
The lines in the ghosted lines and the ghosted planes exercise are also slightly wobbly. Other than that you've done well!
Ellipses
You drew the ellipses well on the ellipses in tables exercise! Most of them fit snugly in the tables and you've drawn through them twice which is good! There are a few outliers though.
The ellipses in planes are executed well :)
The funnels exercise looks good. You have rotated the ellipses and most of them fit snugly in the funnels (to improve I would suggest you ghost them more).
Boxes
You extended the lines to the horizon in the rough perspective exercise which is great (a lot of people forget that)!
The rotated boxes exercise looks good (if you wanna improve I suggest working on symmetry). This exercise was supposed to be hard so don't worry if it didn't turn out perfect. The organic perspective exercise also turned out well.
Comment: Try to submit the pictures in chronological order (it makes it easier to give feedback)!
Congratulations on completing lesson 1:)
Next Steps:
250 box challenge
Hi Kapowh, thank you so much for your critiqe! It's really helpful, and I really appreciate the positive feedback too. I agree that I should ghost more, I think the biggest pitfall for me is impatience so I'll try and work on that. Thanks again!
I'm glad you're going to work on your patience:)
Good luck with the 250 box challenge! If you want me to critique it (once you have completed it), you can always ask!
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
