250 Box Challenge

I wrote some little notes down on later pages to help remind myself what I needed to work on. Apologies if it's a bit messy.
Congratulations on completing the 250 boxes!
I see a ton of improvement, and it was definitely worth your time to do all 250. The first 100 were clearly difficult, although your lines looked pretty confident. The added line weight looked good. In the beginning, some boxes had diverging lines, and some had the "checking lines" going backwards, but it looks like you figured it out before the last 50 boxes, so that's fabulous.
I noticed that for a lot of them, your hatching lines went past where they should, but you did them much cleaner for the last 15-20 boxes.
The one box you may want to redo and conquer (starting with a similar "y-shape") is #238. I'm guessing you understood how they work by that point, but just had a glitch. It's optional, but I kinda like having the last 50 be correct (that is, not diverging). It doesn't need to be perfect--just comparable to the rest of your last 50, and with hatching that is contained on the plane.
Anyway, wonderful job, great improvement, and on to lesson 2!
Next Steps:
Go forth to lesson 2!
Optional: go back and conquer box #238 (starting with a similar y-shape), giving it converging lines. Make sure the hatching is comparably clean to, say, box #236 or #234.
Here it is! Hope I hope I managed to correct it! Sorry I took a while!
Fabulous!
Next Steps:
Good luck with lesson 2!
When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
