Used a Staedtler pigment liner 0.5 pen on white printer paper for the homework. I took the photos after completing all the assignments, so there are no separate pictures of the ghosted planes before using them for the "ellipses in planes" assignment (I'm not sure if that matters).
Hello, I will be critiquing your lesson one homework.
Lines
Your lines look great, they are drawn with confidence and there is little fraying at the ends. Not much to critique here, good job.
Ellipses
Your ellipses look good as well, very nice job on the funnels exercise. The accuracy of your ellipses will continue to improve with practice.
Boxes
And again, your boxes look great, you seem to have a good grasp on perspective. It looks like you've added line weight to your organic perspective boxes. Try to only add additional line-weight where lines overlap, rather than the entire line. Additionally, you should use the ghosting method to ensure that your lines are straight and confident, or you will be covering your initial lines with less confident marks.
Congratulations on completing your first homework, well done!
Next Steps:
Move on to the 250 Box challenge!
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.
