I started the infamous 250 box challenge... need to work on my weakest point ....perspective. I find it almost impossible to make poses from imagination that looks 3D.
Nice studies ! for the process of blocking in directly i feel you, it's quite the same with me, when i try to paint over a sketch it's messy. i think it comes with practice but more importantly find a process that you enjoy, there are countless different process that end up getting great results !
For the challenge, i advise you to open some photos in photoshop and try to locate some vanishing points, make the canvas bigger around the picture and trace them. you'll be astonished by how far they really are. it opened my eyes to the fact that i was putting them too close, even if they were ouf of the page !
keep studying !
