250 Box Challenge

Thank you
Hi I am going to critique your work. What I notice first is that you appear to be drawing these boxes very small. Your convergencies are very good. I can see that occasionally you might draw a box where only one face is showing, for the challenge your are supposed to make sure you can at least see 3 faces, but its very rare and I think it's fine for now anyways. Everything else seems to be fairly good, you may move on to the next lesson!
Next Steps:
In the future practice making larger boxes, usually you should be able to fit about 6 on a page.
Thank you. After doing around 220 boxes with 3 faces, I wondered whether I'm supposed to do boxes with less faces or not. I thought I did good amount of normal boxes already so tried some of those.
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
