Perspective doesn't have to be static and boring.. you can add gesture to make it dynamic! Deform your boxes to reflect the movement and personality of both organic and inorganic forms.

My try

During our lesson this week I was noticing how animated you are while teaching. I was enjoying how your body language was reflecting exactly what you were doing to the boxes. My thoughts were confirmed 4.49 seconds in!🤣😂🤣

Hey @Proko I have a question: if I make it to this point in the course, as of right now, how much more is there in development? Like, is this 50%, 75%, 95% of what's planned? Curious for planning purposes.

Around the 100th lesson, he said we were halfway through the content he had planned for this course. This is the 108th.

Practiced more deformations. Then added in more practice at dividing and wrapping contours. The hatching is quick and sloppy.

your twisting boxes are great

Finally caught back up with the class! When would I need to upload this assignment by to be included in feedback session?

There's usually a dedicated project video that'll note what the deadline for assignment submission is. There's probably going to be a project video next for gestural perspective.

I drew variations of the same box, making them progressively more curved. The biggest challenge was figuring out the bottom arc of the curved plane when it's hidden. And by the same token, I struggled to imagine the whole bottom plane. It's not like drawing through a box, where I know the rules so at least know when something's off and know how to fix it. Do any of you have any tips to share on drawing through deformed boxes?

Thank you Stan. I quite like doing this exercise, it's been something that I practiced almost since the beginning on my own. This and ribbons is really important to understand movement and to teach you how to think on your construction of an object. On a side not. I haven't received a notification on this lesson and the Ginger Root people critique, was it just me?

I let the web developers know about the notification issue, hopefully it's an easy fix! @Juice @nathan_the_phaneuf

Yes it seem to be some problem with the notification. I can refresh the browser many times with nothing happening. I do that when i feel like something should be up. And then just after that i press on notification. And there it shown new notifications that says it came some hours ago . So the notification seem to be pretty reversed now. I need to press it to see if its anything new.
@nathan_the_phaneuf
Same here. I use Gmail and I tend to not receive some of the notifications. Sometimes I will know on time that a new lesson came out, while for some others I receive nothing, not even a spam. It's quite annoying.

I'm doing the perspective challenge. This is the day for the grandfather clock. Try to apply what I learned here and try to give some personality(really need to learn more words for different types of personality to expand my visual library). Can it be even scarier or exaggerated? Btw HBD in advance, Stan.

Thanks for the video! I made the accordion for the instrument in the perspective challenge. I thought it was fitting here as well. The twisting is hard to do while preserving the dimensions of the ends. Messing it up makes the form look tapered. Getting the sides to turn in space properly and not look inflated, deflated, or stretched is going to take some more practice.
