I have such a hard time determining the perspective. At first I thought this was similar to the torso box assignment in the drawing basics, but that had a lot more twisting in the boxes. I noticed in the demos, that Stan’s boxes were all pretty standard and the twisting was done through the connection of skin. Taking that into account I tried to do a similar thing, which made it more difficult than the torso box assignment in the drawing basics. #1 was the hardest for me to determine the perspective and foreshortening on.

Ok a bit better but still not fully there. Time to move on though as I am sure that I will be drawing many more as we go into structure.

I have done a lot of robo beans in my life and its helped me to know something extremely important about sketching. MEDIUM MATTERS!

There it go my robo bean assignment! Any criticism will be welcome :)

My robobean assignment! Hopefully this will help me understand the pelvis. Any criticism is appreciated.

Can someone help me how to find the perspective of the boxes ? This is super difficult for me :cc

Please critique it:)

Ah! I was so focused on boxes I missed out on the lines of action. Next time! I was also far more comfortable with a stick of compressed charcoal then a light pencil, but want to work on my fine line quality.

I keep coming back to this exercise because getting everything right at the same time like spotting the landmarks, getting the perspective right, drawing dynamic boxes, and doing so with clean lines is just such a challenge.

The Boxes with numbers represent the numbers on the ref images. - I think I did well on the bending and stretching of the boxes and the general orientation - The angles for pelvis and shoulders are pretty decent in my opinion Questions: -Number 11 (Twisting sitting pose): How do you draw twisted boxes? It was hard to wrap my head around it - How do you determine the distance between ribcage and pelvis? How do you determine the general size relationship between them? - I already forgot but how do I place the little traingle thing above the tailbone? Generally I am really content with the ribcages. They look way better than my gestures. Would appreciate answers/feedback on my questions

having a hard time maintaining clarity when adding the connection so I kept it to just the boxes. Feedback appreciated. I definitely found this more challenging than the bean.

I went through this class long ago, and I'm in a season where it's time to revisit it. 🥰 I'm a casualty of the "drawing from the right side of the brain" era, being intermediate to advanced in portraits from reference, but not so good at imagination. Well, after studying for years, tonight was a break through for me. I feel like I actually could start to see the rotation of the subject in my mind's eye and then translate that to paper. I can see some things off... still it feels like a jump for me! Please, any critique appreciated - I'm ready to grow!

Some of these could be better, but it's a start!

Critique is appreciate

My Robo beans. I did the first set, then watched the critique vid, then did the second set with a little more data in my brain.

Let me know if I did the boxes right. I am a beginner so I am not sure if I did it right. There are times that I just know it is wrong but I dont know how to draw the box in a way that is correct.
