Measured Constructive Drawing

We learned measured constructive drawing this week, in which we bind objects into boxes. I did not take the picture of the first error I did but I misunderstood the assignment halfway into the class and drew a 2D box instead of 3D. That was the moment I knew this is going to be hard for me.

Tool used: 2B pencil and putty eraser

Sketching the box and placing the bottles in with the guides, this picture was my second attempt

Process of the bottles

However, I was struggling with the spacing a lot from all the work I’ve seen so far

Even with a thumbnail, I seem to accidentally make the measurements of the bottles either too tall or too long and it will be out of the canvas which makes the drawing looks out of proportion. 

Final version:

Tool used: 2B - 4B pencil and putty eraser on A3

I was struggling with the drawing itself than the understanding of the theory and concept of it which makes me feel frustrated with my work. With a little help, I did fix my work and I feel I have improved more than I thought I would.
