Video

This video is very interesting and helpful. It contains a lot of practical, constructive and clear suggestions on how to proceed, to what to pay attention and what to avoid. Compared with some other drawbox videolessons there is no rush here, no speed up recordings, there is no just philosophical deviations. It's just calm and quiet conversation about multiple concrete ways and methods to make a progress and to get better in this challenging task of drawing a box. And that was exactly what was badly needed Thank you for that video.

I'm more accurate with a fountain pen grip like @ScyllaStew, rather than a pencil pen like Comfy shows.... Is a fountain pen grip like this okay, long term? I want to get the right habit now... I like a pencil grip too, I'm just way less accurate :D so maybe I just need to practice more? Thanks all and hope you can help me!!

I was wondering if I was doing this exercise incorrectly because it was taking SO long - nope it's just a long one :')

The parallel marking of the tics isnj't in the "next 50" page of the guide and I think that really helps make things make sense.

Thank you for these videos! They’re very helpful and very nice to work along with

So, Scylla... did you finish drawabox?

not worth watching! Obviously she feels very important!

I thought I thoroughly fucked up but actually did okay and learnt the lesson i was meant to

thank god i have a competition over who is better in art and i am beating my friend in drawing thanks to you!!

Thanks for this:) It helped a lot especially making endpoints on a line reduced fraying!

Thanks! This helped a lot, especially drawing the endpoints reduced fraying:)

please come back!!!

"throw your pity party, but at the end, someone's gonna have to pick up all the decorations" Damn that's a nice quote

Lol, I was doing fine with the shapes vertically and horizontally, but I had gotten too confused when it came to making the angles from the sides....

does this helo with drawing them any angke

definitely can't seem to make it smooth but i guess ill see if it passes later

is this a tutorial on how too draw boxes any angle

This one was a lot better done and helped me a lot more than the first episode looks killer

So as long as I’m understanding this correctly the mental challenge comes after we have already drawn these boxes as a form of clarifying where these boxes intersect. Okay doesn’t seem that bad

You should upload more videos

Watched both these videos and honestly this is the hardest exercise I’ve done yet I just can’t seem to understand where the form shadows stop and where the cast shadows begin very difficult also you only spent 3 and half hours on this and they look good I spent like 12 days on mine

So what lesson do we get to become art wizards 🧙‍♂️

Bring them yellow nails back!!!

These streams are super cool but you sound so sad in this one hope you feel better. Also I’m definitely gonna recreate the sausage circle

I used up 3 Micron 005 fine liner pens in this exercise. What am I doing wrong?

But it's completely different from the method Uncomfortable shown in his video How to draw a box 2...

at least i saw this at 40 boxes in , threw them all gotta redo it all .

Mine dont get curvier its more like a rounded cube

9:00

I cant use it

this is 4 years old now but i still wanted to say THANK YOU for these. My anixety lessens when I see someone else going through what I'm going through lol! I tend to rush when I can see i'm almost done & i can 10000% tell which boxes I rushed in but learnin & gonna take a break ^ try again tomorrow!

retaking draw a box, I think the stuff I did after I quit the first time really helped me out, this time I'm certain I'll finish this behemoth of a course

This filtered me, I dropped drawabox because of it, and each time I go back, Im still not able to do it.

im convinces she has a fucking ruler somehwere

thank you for this. 🫵🗽

the guy in the background complaining about the fact that you are reading the instructions 9:52

Sometimes you laugh so loudly near the mic just destroys my ear 😑

took ur ass 13 minutes to draw ONE line

grinding through these and its nice to have someone to do them with, hope your eyes are okay even if this is 4 years late lol

Why all of them, don't sure about any thing

so glad you made this video. i feel human after seeing an artist like you find it challenging

coincidentally, I found this video on the same date lol nice vid

Wow I'm really starting on the same day of the year lol

Okay so let me get this straight... 1. You draw the initial Y 2. You plot an additional Y behind it 3. You join the two Ys together

first line is drawn at 17:34

Very cool video. I am wondering what is going on with the audio, though. Is there a gate being applied to the audio by chance? That's kindof what it sounds like, like the audio is being ducked as the dB dips bellow a certain amount.

I think I have a bad habit of being heavy handed, my line width is so thick because of pressing down so hard... I need to stop doing that but it's natural for me now from writing that way. Thanks for this content

how do i know if im drawing from my shoulder or elbow?

Thanks for all these reviews. I just started draw a box and bought 3 fine liners. Staedtler pigment liner 0.5mm, Micron 0.45mm and uni pin 0.5mm. I noticed that the pigment liner has the least smudge, then the micron, then the uni pin. However, the uni pin has the darkest, most consistent black tone, followed by the micron and then the staedtler. The pigment liner looks a bit grey in comparison to the uni pin. I also noticed that holding the tip of the staedtler on paper results in the ink slowly bleeding into the paper, which doesn't happen with the micron and uni pin. I'm guessing the pens have varying amounts of alcohol/drying agent in the ink. So the staedtler produces a more watered down but faster drying ink whereas the uni pin has a more pigmented but slower drying ink. So, pros and cons. Not sure what I prefer yet. Maybe there's a perfectly pigmented, smudge free fine liner out there somewhere. I think I'll start with the uni pin and if smudging's an issue I'll try another.
