    Hi, I hope I could help you with my review

    1) Superimposed Lines: Remember that the porpuse of this exsercise is to get your head around the confidence of your lines and get used to use your shoulder. Your lines seems wobbly. 
    
    2) Ghosted Lines: Sane here, your lines are wobbly because you are trying to correct the course of the line, remember to ghost your movement using your shoulder and then making one sigle and confident line, it does not have to be perfect, just made with confidence.
    
    3) Planes: The same here.
    
    4) Tables of Ellipses and Ellipses in Planes: Remember that your ellipses have to touch the border of your frame in the tables exercise and the border of the planes in the other one.

    I think the quality of your ellipses is pretty good, you just have to loose a bit and use more your shoulder to get more confident lines

    Next Steps:

    I would recomend you to re do Superimposed lines and ghosted lines exercises, again using your shoulder and make sure that each line is done in one movement, it doesn't have to be perfect.

    When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

    I think you did a great job,

    I just encourage you to ghost your lines before to commit to do them, just keep in mind to do them confidently because some of them seems wobbly.

    Anyway, I would say you should continue to 250 box challenge.

    Take the time to tap yourself on the back, you deserve it. Well Done.

    Next Steps:

    move on to the 250 box challenge

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Staedtler Pigment Liners

Staedtler Pigment Liners

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
