This month, 2 years ago i submitted my Lesson 1 HW & Today, i am submitting the 250 Box Challenge :') Over the 2 years, i picked it up and dropped it many times, so that is why you can see my first 100-110 boxes being a complete mess.
Anyway, I finally managed to finished it :D
I'm looking forward to the critique :)
P.s i am aware that my lines became very arched & wobbly in the last few pages & i am working on improving that :')
Honestly, despite the errors you mentioned, this is a very solid submission. From the first box your convergences were looking ok, the line weight was good and the hatching was consistent. You also varied up the sizes and orientations of your boxes a lot which is good. If I had to give some minor critique, it's that sometimes your boxes are a little too dramatic-looking (one corner angle being less than 90 degrees), and I'm not quite sure if the boxes with one edge directly pointing at the viewer are allowed, like box 47 (I avoided that when doing my challenge, but I've seen conflicting answers, so if I'm wrong then ignore me).
I think you can safely move on to lesson 2. If you feel like you need more practice with boxes, you can try some of the advanced exercises here: https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/2/
Next Steps:
Lesson 2, and optionally the advanced box exercises
I'll keep that in mind.
Thank you so much! :)
A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
