I think the first one has dog vibes even before reading what you put! What do you think went wrong?

I know I am 2 late for the video but still I wanted to do at least a couple of these. Have a nice evening

These are looking pretty good! I think you kept great proportions while pushing the perspective

Box torsos from imagination and from references.

These look great! Awesome job with the bends and twists. Your references are great too. Where did you find your photos?

Some attempts at blobs to boxes. Please excuse the messy lines. I ended up erasing a lot of the blobs while correcting the boxes. Working from both imagination and reference (on second thought real human figure references would've been better than animation), it was challenging but fun - especially ones with quite extreme perspective. One thing I've realized in the process is that I still have much difficulty rotating boxes freely in my mind. Most of the time, I rely on real-life boxes for guidance.
(Also, I did use a ruler at the end to check perspective and make corrections).

Aww you have so much white out on your first one~ I would have loved to have seen your construction lines! I think these are great! You could probably push the extreme overlap in the boxes inspired by the Nimona poster. I might try those poses too cause it seems fun!

Because I'm basically twelve, as I look at everyone's assignments, I can't help but think of this.

Really good exercise. I feel like my brain is working hard and I am doing many attempts before I feel like I am happy with a line placement. So this clearly is a process where I am experimenting and learning a lot.

Mahj ghaaad! 😅 Helpful but still hard.

I think your boxy main issue is that your convergence for all of the parallel lines are going the wrong way. They should be converging towards each other but in a lot of your boxes they're moving away so they don't look like true boxes. You could try practicing 2 point perspective with vanishing points to get a feel for the boxes, and then use those boxes as reference and draw them free hand!

Super helpful project! Used the timer tool to get the blobs down quickly, and then took some time to refine in passes.

My level 2. Fun but difficult to do from imagination

I think your pelvis on your first image could be in more accurate proportion to an actual pelvis, but overall these look great!

My submissions for Level 1 and Level 2!
Anyone else find this exercise really satisfying? It was a lot of fun to carve planes into the blobs - somehow it felt a lot more solid and real than just drawing an abstract box.
I'm going to make a conscious effort to think of the forms I'm drawing as actual 3D objects I'm carving into. With luck, that sense of solidity will be transferred into the drawing itself.

I had fun with this too! I think drawing the blob first really forced me to think about what kind of box I wanted, instead of just throwing lines down on paper. Your torsos came out successful!

Had fun playing around with the poses from imagination with the level 2 boxes.

Here are my submissions for critique for levels 1 and 2! And an additional "oops I got carried away" level 2. Before I realized you asked for human torsos with correct proportions, I imagined a bunny creature with crazy huge ears twirling about.
I feel like my boxes are pretty rigid because I'm having a hard time bending them in my mind. I focused really hard on making sure the convergence was correct on each box. I also feel like 80% of the boxes ended up the size and shape I wanted, but 20% ended up too small or too long. Maybe I wasn't imagining the shape before I drew those failures.
I found it made the most sense in my brain when I pictured the closest edge and plane for each box, and drew that part first! Overall fun project that I plan on repeating a lot more to help me develop thinking in 3D!

Did the pear study again after studying the critiques. I also used more of the page the second attempt. Felt pretty good with what I learned about shapes and values.

I sat staring at my blank sketchbook page for a few days, paralyzed to even attempt this. Today I finally put pencil to paper. I can already tell the proportions of my drawing are certainly off. I'm also only using one pencil and could benefit from getting some darker leads. Would love any additional thoughts on my attempt! Thanks <3
