It looks like you valued the confidence in your lines over accuracy and it definitely produced good results. Although, there is some fraying on both ends and some lines are wobbly which is evident in your ghosted lines. The lines in the ghosted planes are looking confident and accurate and you filled out the page with as much as you can. I'm not sure due to the image quality but I think I see that you tried to hide your mistakes by drawing over them. Because you tried to draw over them, the line weight makes them stand out and that is why I noticed the mistakes. Try to leave them alone as fixing them would do the opposite effect.

Your ellipses are looking good. They are tight, almost every table is filled with as much ellipses as possible (refer to the bottom of the upper left table as there are some spaces left), and most of them are confident. There are some wobbly ones here and there but it is something that you will improve on overtime. Some of the ellipses in your funnels exercise are not symmetrical when split on the minor axis and the center line isn't aligned properly which made it difficult to know whether the ellipses are symmetrical or not.

Your boxes show that you put the time and effort to make the boxes follow the vanishing point and rotate them. Overall, I have no complaints on the boxes themselves except the mistakes you made on the line exercises. You tried to fix the mistaken line by drawing over it and wobbly lines. But this is no problem as you're in the early stages of the course and you will get the chance to work on it in the 250 box challenge.

Next Steps:

Move on to the 250 box challenge and work on your line quality in your warm-ups.

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.
