If you haven't already, read this short article on the topic written by drawabox: https://drawabox.com/article/ink/notpencil. If this doesn't help I'd suggest continuing in pencil or getting in contact with the drawabox team. The rest of this reply will be my own opinion.

With incorrectly placed lines or ellipses, if it's slightly off I'll estimate where the proper line/ellipse would have been and place the rest of the lines accordingly. If way off then I just draw the correct plcement of the line/ellipse in its place.

If you did this course perfectly without fail, you didn't need to take this course. We can't learn if we're right, as we've already learnt it. we learn by correction of mistake. If your making mistakes AND correcting them properly your doing it right. Now this can be done in pencil, though if you rub it out you've 1. wasted time rubbing it out (if the objective is only to learn, not to make it look good) as the time spent literally using the eraser isn't spent learning, 2. removed the ability to see where you've most commonly went wrong in previous studies. Again, this is only my opinion on the topic, so I'd suggest do what suits you best!

Hey dgscott922, great question!

Are you balancing your drawabox studies with the 50% rule in lesson 0? If so, what medium are you using for your own 50%, as it's totally up to you what you use! Now assuming that you're using whatever medium you want in the 50%, would you be willing to use a fineliner pen for the drawabox lessons?

Also, looking through your previous posts it seems, to me at least, that you might be putting too much pressure on yourself to get every line as straight as possible. The lines you drew were in all honesty "good enough", and even if they weren't, that's good too! It's perfectly fine to draw bad lines. Drawabox is supposed to show you mistakes as blatantly as possible, making it easy to identify mistakes and recommend the next steps forward. This is partially done through using fineliner, as it reveals all of your marks and decisions to us, remove that grey area that pencil and other mediums may bring. I also agree with some of the points FLOTSCHOS made, this will get better with mileage!

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!
