No worries bro, I'm glad to help;)
Yeah by the time you finish boxes challenge your lines and perspective will definitely get better.
Good luck)
No worries bro, and don't really worry about ellipses right now, just try to make them
as smooth and confident as you can and they'll definitely get better.)
Hi Lucas, overall good job and congrats finishing first lesson :)
Lines
Lines are looking p good overall, though you have some long ones that are arching a bit. This can happen because you might not be using your shoulder as your main pivot so check you're doing it. Another thing that can help to fix this is to try to arch consciously to the the opposite side when drawing the lines.
Ellipses
Ellipses are a bit wobbly at times. Remember that in ellipses as well as lines you should try to do them as confident as you can, don't hesitate in sacrificing accuracy to get them smoother and more confident.
Boxes
Rough perspective good job keeping vertical lines perpendicular and horizontal lines parallel to the horizon.
Boxes are fine too.
Your main issue is perspective, which is completely fine, as you'll work on it in 250 boxes challenge.
Also in rotated boxes the gap should be consistent)
Good job overall and good luck ;)

Continue to use these exercises as part of your warm ups (about 10-15 minutes)
Feel free to move onto the 250 box challenge
Don’t forget to take breaks and draw for fun!
Also, now that you’ve completed Lesson 1, I encourage you to critique some Lesson 1 community submissions. Not only will this help the community, but it will also solidify and reinforce your understanding of the material. Of course, this is optional (but we’d be especially grateful!).

Lines
Lines are looking p good overall, though they do get a bit wobbly especially in boxes.
Ellipses
Ellipses are a bit wobbly at times. Remember that in ellipses as well as lines you should try to do them as confident as you can, don't hesitate in sacrificing accuracy to get them smoother and more confident.
Boxes
Boxes are fine too, though your main issue in both rotated boxes and organic perspective is perspective, which is completely normal, as you'll work on it in 250 boxes.
Good luck and keep it up ;)

Good job on funnels( minor axis cuts ellipses in halves).

On rotated boxes, you're missing corner boxes. In both rotated boxes and organic perspective, your main issue is perspective, which is completely fine, as you'll work on it in 250 boxes challenge.
Also in rough perspective horizontal lines should be parallel to the horizon. Keep an eye on that.

Lines and ellipses are p good in general, they do get a bit wobbly at times, specially your ellipses. So don't forget that in these exercises you should be focusing in confidence even if your accuracy gets worse.
Boxes are looking pretty good too. The issues you have is that in both the rotated boxes and organic perspective you got mistakes on the perspective of the boxes, which is completely normal, and nothing to worry about as you'll practice it on the box challenge.
Next Steps:
First of all, congratulations on finishing lesson 1! Your next step is the box challenge.
As I marked this as complete, you are now qualified to critique lesson 1 submissions.
-Doing critiques is a way of learning and solidifying concepts. I can atest to that after having done hundreds of critiques. There are a lot of concepts that I did not understand, and thanks to critiquing I started understanding them. Which made me learn a lot more through the course.
-Another thing is that as the number of current submissions is super high, if you critique some critiques, those would be less critiques I'd have to critique before reaching your next submissions, so you'd get your critiques faster. The new system ordering submissions also makes that the more agrees your critiques have the higher you'll be placed in the queue of critiques, which will improve your chances of getting critiques faster as well.
It's totally optional of course, I won't force anyone to give critiques. But me and the other people who are critiquing would be super grateful if you gave it a shot.
Good luck on the box challenge, and keep up the good work!
A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
