Should i really find a circular object for the funnels exercise

12:51 PM, Saturday April 6th 2024

As i am doing the funnels in my pool of warm ups it isn't hard for me to pick it up but it can like dish plate. also the ink of the pen might affect to the dinner plate and i dont have a curved ruler ( atleast not a big enough one ) but drawing an arch for the funnels isn't that hard for me i am very experienced at drawing curves by the way. so do i really have to find an object to help me of can i just do it freehand

As the instructions in the exercise say, alternatively you can find a round object, but the goal is not to practice our freehand curves. You'll get a consistent result out of using a curved object and that will make it easier to place the straight lines, but ultimately it's up to you. For what it's worth, fineliner ink is generally water-based and will wash off a plate if you do somehow manage to get it on there.

Drawabox isn't the be-all, end-all of drawing fundamental education. Our approach prioritizes certain concepts over others, and while we believe it do so for good reasons, ultimately it doesn't appeal to everyone. If Drawabox simply doesn't work for you, give Proko's Drawing Basics course a try - at the very least, you'll probably find it to be a hell of a lot more fun.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
