Hello COFALITO, here is my critique of your lesson 1.
Superimposed Lines: your lines are ok, but they have a slight deviation from the original trajectory, but nothing unusual for beginners.
Ghosted lines: the lines are fine.
Ghosted planes: good lines!
Tables of ellipses: Your ellipses are really good, but they have a very slight flicker.
Ellipses in planes: I saw that some of them exceed the limit of being drawn 3 times. So be careful with that.
Funnels: Here, the alignments of the minor axes, are fine. Some ellipses are a little deformed. I thought it was cool that you marked the alignment errors. What I said about drawing the same ellipses several times also applies here.
Plotted perspective: I have nothing to complain about.
Rough perspective: this exercise is really quite difficult (I know from experience). But you did this exercise very well. It's normal for some lines to not be so straight.
Rotated Boxes: The boxes on the outermost parts were not rotated as much as they could have been, not giving the overall shape a spherical appearance.
Organic perspective: You could have added more boxes to the frames so there could be more overlap.
Finally, you did the exercises very well. I recommend that you add some of these exercises with warm-ups before you start drawing. I will mark your lesson as complete.
Next Steps:
Your next step is the famous 250 BOX CHALLENGE. All I wish is good luck :).
Thank you so much for taking the time to review my homework. I’ll keep in mind your feedback moving forward! :)
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
