Hey again uncomfortable!

Here's my lesson 3: https://imgur.com/a/SK6Ua

Got myself a scanner so no more terrible image quality, thankfully.

Think I was a little too enthusiastic with detailing here, guess finally getting to drawing real things got to me a little.

Thanks for the critique and happy new year!

Hey Uncomfortable!

Here's my lesson 2 homework: https://imgur.com/a/Qosm9

Had some trouble with contour lines around forms with appendages, still not sure what the best way to do those is.

Not all the texture drawings turned out as well as I'd liked either, some of them feel flat and probably a little too busy.

Hello again Uncomfortable!

Here are my 250 boxes: https://imgur.com/a/ncnBb

Think the photo quality is a bit less horrid here.

In hindsight it might've been better to draw a little less cluttered so there'd be room for extending lines for the vanishing points, though at the same time I'd prefer not to use half my sketch book for this single challenge.

Thanks for the feedback. Drawing through my boxes made it the organic perspective exercise look really messy to me so I stopped doing it halfway through.

I'd actually moved on to the 250 box challenge and finished it prior to posting my lesson 1 here. Did draw through my boxes for that.

Guess I'll still post it in the feedback thread for that, constructive criticism is always nice!

Hey Uncomfortable!

Here's my lesson 1: https://imgur.com/a/71mys

Sorry for the grainy photos, couldn't get the camera to properly focus on the entire sketchbook. Hope the drawings are still visible enough.

Since starting this course I've been practicing these exercises daily and noticed improvement with ghosting lines in particular. Superimposed wavy lines are still a little messy but I figured drawing from right to left (righthanded) makes them easier, since I can actually see where I'm going then.

Thanks for any pointers you might have!
