Hi Quad

Your ghosted lines are a bit different from the other approaches. But you seem to have fun and that's what matters.

You did a really nice job on the rotated boxes challenge and this one is not easy to keep as round.

A bit more variation at the last organic perspectives would be nice but I guess you'll be have a lot of experiencing with boxes at the 250 Box Challenge.

Have fun!

Thanks for the critique Verounsen! I'll practice Organic Perspectives more during my 15-minute warmups.

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
