Thank you for this! I really appreciate your feedback, especially regarding confidence over accuracy. I won't notice that by myself.
Thank you again for the reminders for the 250 Box Challenge. I'm currently using the recommended paper, but not the pen. Sadly, I still can't find a felt tip pen :(( But I'll make sure to acquire one before I start the second lesson.
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.
