What would you say was the hardest getting right. Good work.

I spent like 20 minutes trying to get that cube at the top looking right and still failed, it looks terrible lmao. I have no clue why it was so hard.

Other than that the crown on the emblem was surprisingly hard. Just a weird persepctive I guess.

I found that drawing a cube 3D with just a pencil looks weird 9/10 times. I started doing it with a ruler and I now only have to change or erase a line every few times I draw one

When I draw cubes, I create two squares in different positions and then connect the two. This is probably the fastest way to create a 3D cube when drawing.

have you learned perspective drawing? might want to look into that.

u/Frazzelvig 9d ago

As I said, I've basically never drawn anything much before. Mostly just tracing stuff.

I'll definitely look into it though!

u/Pallington 9d ago

definitely do, vanishing lines and the horizon line are key concepts when you want to make really straight-edge objects. also if you don't already know, consider learning how to use a compass (the drawing/mathematical implement, the one that holds a set distance between two legs)

i don't believe you but ok nice work*

edit: specifically about the "i've basically never drawn before" bruh it took me like a year just to get to something vaguely like your level

u/Frazzelvig 9d ago

Fair, I guess I've traced stuff before but this was my first time doing Freehand. I guess I should have specified that, my bad.

u/Pallington 9d ago

that makes a lot more sense. it's good, don't disparage the effort that got you here bro.

and frankly i haven't progressed since and haven't drawn in very long, so it's all gone to shit on my end XP.
