Hey Doods,
An entirely new type of post, WOW!
Try not to get too excited and this juncture its about understanding structure and thus the construction of boxes, cylinders and spheres in perspective/3D space. As a 3D artist I know a little about this, I have also done many box exercises in sketchbooks in the past. Probably one of the reasons I have put it off for so long. Its about understanding dimension and obviously applying that to the human form. While I was a little rusty with my first 5 minutes I think I got there in the end. I found you have to be quick with the pencil to get a straighter line and turned any graduation off of the apple pencil to lose the blurry line (IMG 2-5).
(IMG 1 - 5 Min - 15/01/2020) Various Boxes at various Positions/angles 1 - "Some of the boxes look a little misshapen"
(IMG 2 - 5 Min - 15/01/2020) Various Boxes at various Positions/angles 2 - "These are starting to look a lot better"
(IMG 3 - Unknown - 15/01/2020) Various Boxes at various Positions/angles 3 - "Lots of nice variation here but be aware of your angles"
(IMG 4 - Unknown - 15/01/2020) Various Boxes at various Positions/angles 4 - "Looks like a cube explosion good vanishing point"
(IMG 5 - Unknown - 15/01/2020) Rough Block Body from Bean - "The torso and pelvis are quite close - keep this in mind"
I did a few basic box exercises by drawing just random boxes at any angle. Towards the end I tried constructing dimension for a rough bean I knocked up by dividing the singular fluid form into boxes (IMG 5). It kind of worked I mean I thought the twist would be hard to knock up but I actually found it harder to separate forms that are over the top of each other. I think the key here is to draw the form that is going to be overlapped first so then its placed. I realised after that I didn't space them enough which I believe is because I'm not too confident overlapping boxes, I will be practicing this more and more till it goes in. Wish me luck :)
Later people!
