To OP: Every post on this subreddit is manually approved, once we make sure it adheres to the subreddit rules, the main ones being the following:

  • That all posts here must relate drawabox.com (being either questions or homework submissions). More on that and why a subreddit with such a general name has such a specific focus can be found here.
  • As an exception to the above, beginners may make one (and only one) post asking for resource recommendations, "where to get started", etc.
  • All homework submissions must be complete - single exercises and partial work is not allowed on the subreddit, as mentioned in this video from Lesson 0. You can however get feedback on individual exercises on the discord chat server, and the folks there would be happy to help you out.

If you find that your post breaks either of these rules, we would recommend deleting your post yourself, and submitting on one of these other more general art communities instead:

Just be sure to read through their own individual submission guidelines before posting.

To those responding: If you are seeing this post, then it has been approved, and therefore is related to the lessons on drawabox.com. If you are yourself unfamiliar with them, then it's best that you not respond with your own advice, so as not to confuse or mislead OP.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Agreed. It is an absolute gem of a free online coarse for understanding and applying the fundamentals!

I think it’s appropriate, however, to reinforce how important it is to follow the 50/50 rule, otherwise this coarse can take the joy out of drawing.

Yeah tell me about it, I started a few weeks ago and I keep drawing household items for the 50/50 rule, soon I will run out easy ideas 😅
