250 Box Challenge

Hello,
All 250 boxes are attached in the link above. Thank you in advance for your feedback! :)
Hello! Let's take a look at your boxes.
You seem to have put a lot of thought into your boxes, however there are a couple of things to look after. The first couple of boxes have the extending lines facing the wrong direction. Remember that the the lines have to be extended away from the viewer, as lines that face the viewer don't extend to the vanishing point. Try extending the lines away from the center dot of the Y. You might also want to recall the previous steps in constructing the box as well.
Many of your extended lines are parallel to each other. A box in three point perspective will always have their lines converge, so they shouldn't be parallel. I know it's a bit tricky since we can't mark the vanishing point, but you can approximate.
As with the lesson 1 assignments, remember to prioritize confidence over accuracy when it comes to lines. There was some repeating in the first boxes, but you did show improvement with your later boxes. Keep it up!
The orientations of your later boxes are too similar. To differentiate, try doing different lengths for the lines of your Ys.
Next Steps:
Get ready for the lesson 2! Good luck!
This was really helpful, thanks for the review :)
When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
