While these are looking good, you are still sticking to roughly the same shallow rate of foreshortening, and are not experimenting with more variation.

Please try another 10, this time being sure to play with both shallow and dramatic foreshortening.

Next Steps:

10 more please.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

Hi Tofu,

I've drawn some more boxes, i've tried to focus more on bringing the vanishing point closer to the boxes on some sides:

Good work, these are closer to what I was hoping to see.

You've shown that you can shift the position of your vanishing points so I'll be moving you on to the next lesson.

Keep practicing and experimenting so you continue to build up comfort.

Continue to practice drawing boxes and previous exercises as warm ups and good luck in lesson 2.

Next Steps:

Move on to lesson 2.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Thank you for taking the time to look over these :)

There were a few of them where I was trying to focus more on narrowing the distance from the box to the perspective point, then stepped back and realised it was still way too far in the distance!... I'll keep practicing.

Kind regards

Tom

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

The Art of Blizzard Entertainment

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.
