Thanks for the feedback. I'm a bit confused what you mean by plant construction branches. Do you want me to draw plants that contain branches using construction or is it more focusing on drawing branches?

I struggle with the same issue. As someone who has completed the 250 box challenge, my best advice is to simply push through it and don't get discouraged. It gets hard seeing work that is less than favorable, but after completing it I noticed significant improvement in not only my boxes, but also my line work. It has become much easier for me to draw a confident and smooth line after doing the challenge.
Sorry for the late response. Got caught up in a few things the past months and also went through some older lessons just to refresh my memory. Here are the re-done exercises.
For the organic forms with contours, should I do contour ellipses, contour curves, or 1 page of each?
A lot of folks have heard about Scott Robertson's "How to Draw" - it's basically a classic at this point, and deservedly so. It's also a book that a lot of people struggle with, for the simple reason that they expect it to be a manual or a lesson plan explaining, well... how to draw. It's a reasonable assumption, but I've found that book to be more of a reference book - like an encyclopedia for perspective problems, more useful to people who already have a good basis in perspective.
Sketching: The Basics is a far better choice for beginners. It's more digestible, and while it introduces a lot of similar concepts, it does so in a manner more suited to those earlier in their studies.
