Marshall Vandruff
Let's take a look at your perspective grids, focusing on line direction and proportion. We'll covers common errors like reversed grids and distortion from wide-angle views, while stressing the value of estimating proportions through observation.

Yes Marshall, thank you so much for all the detailed critiques. We all are happy and eager to learn from you :)

Marshall, thank you for the detailed critique! It’s really helpful. Here is another attempt at dramatic foreshortening where both VPs are very close to us but one is closer than the other. The left wing, the more distant one, is noticeably shorter. Hope I got it right this time :)

Once again, Marshall, I apologize for having the assignment on the Grid, making it hard to read. Also, my brain as I was drawing my object again, completely blanked out on putting the grids out, so I apologize on my behalf. I'll just have to get used to thinking and putting my grids out from now on, though, for sure. Thanks for trying your best, though, on giving me a critique though Anyway, I appreciate it. Also, I'll try and start drawing a little more neatly as well.

Thanks for the critique and lyrical spin on my violin. :3 I’m working on turning torsos now and it’s I think the first time I’m rotating organic complex forms from imagination fluidly. It’s an insane feeling of empowerment. (did I hear tumbling cubes upcoming lesson? That’s a lot of right angles) 😆

Marshall, thanks for the critique. I did print off all 12 box grids and then quickly realised I was in a spiders web of lines, without a clear understanding of the grids and their construction with respect to VP's and Horizon lines. I look forward to the lessons ahead that you mention.

Working on them now so that you will both understand and, like a rock guitarist, choose your distortions.

I strive for the line quality some of you have in your sketches, beautiful stuff as usual, and only marginally intimidating!
