Hello, and a splendid work, the lines and ellipses are confident! My best wishes for your journey now, and all I can say is, 250 boxes will take time, but it is a great opportunity to set a schedule for your art sessions, a dedicated time frame not only helps us stay consistent but also makes the day less chaotic haha(coming from personal experience), and it will benefit for future lessons as well. Good luck.

Next Steps:

Congratulations, now you can move towards the famous 250 box challenge.

Some points before moving on:

  • Do regular warmups, they do wonders, even if you think you won't be able to draw much, then also try to squeeze atleast five minutes per day for warmup, while keeping the aforementioned points in mind for your exercises.

  • Do not hesitate to revisit lesson zero, or the lesson texts and videos if you have questions or want to recall about the exercises and warmups.

  • Do follow the fifty percent rule, you might enjoy it or you might not even feel like doing it but do it nonetheless, you will appreciate its value over time.

  • Do not isolate, regularly post your updates in the appropriate section or the appropriate lesson channels on discord to get feedback on the work in progress.

  • And to take good care of your health and sleep(This is the most improtant one in my opinion).

My best wishes for your future endeavours, have great time.

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.
PureRef

PureRef

This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.

When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.

Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
