LET'S GOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥 We gettin out the 250 box challenge with this one!!

I'm actually so happy you still upload to this day, almost 6 or 7 years later than the first ones for DAB

Would have been an amazing pun to name the video "Y we use the Y method"

Missed opportunity 😂

I’m in the middle of the 250Box Challenge right now. Thank you for the note about pacing. I just did box 115. I think I’m going to do some 50% time and then come back and finish the challenge more slowly.

You are amazing! I can't believe you're still making these videos after all these years. You're a true inspiration and a hero to all people who want to learn how to draw.

It is amazing to see the lessons and videos being updated even after so long. I already finished this section, but this will definitely be a video I come back to when I need a refresher.

Thank you for the demonstration video. It really helps me to understand how to draw the box properly without me having to throw a fit!😊

Great lesson! Loved this one, good stuff. Thank you!

Great video, thank you for posting these as they really help with my Drawabox experience!

no way new uncomfortable vid dropped

Hey, nice to see ya again, it's been a looooong time

I think you gave the wrong link in the description. It leads to plotted perspective instead of organic perspective, where it is first mentioned

Ah, shoot - you're absolutely right. Thanks for calling that out, it should now be corrected.

Proko made a video recently talking about just how important this is, I want to draw anime characters but I'm forcing myself to learn the fundamentals XD, its hard.

3:15 this looks familiar

woah what are the chances of uncomfortable uploading right as i start drawabox

Do the 3 rates of convergence need to be similar? Like if i make 1 Vp close, do the other 2 need to be close too?

The relationships between the rates of convergence of our 3 sets of edges dictates two separate things. The average rate of convergence across all of them speaks to the overall rate of foreshortening, which conveys how much of the measurements of that box can be measured directly on the page, and how much exists in the "unseen" dimension of depth. The *differences* between the 3 rates of convergence however speaks to the way in which the form is oriented in space. As we turn the box on its vertical axis for instance, one set of edges will move towards converging more rapidly, while the other one will move towards converging less rapidly. To answer your question, no, there are absolutely situations where the rates of convergence between the different sets of edges will be entirely different, and we encountered such situations both in the rotated boxes exercise preceding this one, as well as when discussing rotation in this page of the lesson's lecture material: drawabox.com/lesson/1/8

I watched the video, thought I understood it well, tried it...and drew a "box" with 8 sides 😭 and all of my boxes look like fucked up pyramids. Time for a rewatch.

Second try was a lot better, but still my most awful so far. Remembering that that's not the point 🫠🫡 every bad box is a result of my tendency to rush and just spam out lines hoping to get a better one this time. This course is hard not because of the mechanics, but because it's so precise and the instructions are so clear I'm forced to face my own impatient and foolish tendencies again and again.

well this is convenient

So basically, using the Y method, we can apply the rule you said that goes "Each set of parallel edges converge to a vanishing point." especially here in 3 point perspective where no axes goes to the infinite vanishing point. Am I right?

Yes - or more accurately, the Y method specifically pushes students to focus on paying attention to how those sets of edges converge consistently, so it serves us well as an exercise.

you're a method
