I'm just starting the 250 box challenge and I want to make sure I'm on the right track. How do you tell which face is directed at the viewer. I'm not sure if I did those right or not. Critiques are certainly appreciated! I don't want to do 250 boxes the wrong way.

P.S I am doing this digitally ,and this how I'll be doing the majority of my art. I do practice by hand sometimes, but I'm trying to get used to my current set up. I'm doing my best not to Ctrl Z.

So this is actually very much my fault - I ended up phrasing/demonstrating that bit of the box challenge video very poorly and didn't notice until it was way too late. It'll be fixed before long, when my overhaul of the demos and videos gets to the box challenge.

Basically each box consists of 6 faces, three of which face towards the viewer, three of which face away from the viewer. You can pick any one of the three that face towards the viewer and fill it with hatching. The distinction is between those that are oriented towards the viewer and those that face away - it's not that there's one right choice, there are three.
