    Thanks for such a timely and detailed review.

    I did try to apply the perspective in the arrows, but the picture got uploaded reverse. I will keep that in mind and try improve upon that.

    I did solve the cactus problem with lines. Will try to solve it with cast shadows.

    Nice job. Marking as complete.

    Ghosting lines need more shoulder with confidence as the lines are a bit wobbly.

    Could have drawn more lines in the super imposition challenge. Fill out the page more.

    Other than that it looks good.

    Next Steps:

    Practice ghosting more. Draw from shoulder with swift confident strokes.

    First of all congrats for completing the daunting challenge.

    I will mark it as complete although there is room for improvement. In the starting the perspective is bit flat which comes off better in the later boxes. Extend your lines more to check if the perspective is right.

    1st of you can draw some boxes bigger filling only 4-5 boxes per page and some only one box per page.

    2nd give more line weight to the outside form.

    3rd draw more from the shoulder with confident strokes as the lines are not coming as straight. Practice the straight lines drawing with shoulders.

    4th practice more ghosting before putting mark down.

    5th put more thought into the perspective of the box, thinking about how it looks before putting the mark down.

    Next Steps:

    Move onto lesson 2 and practice more big boxes. Practice long lines and ghosting.

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).
