I was wondering if I have to also complete the 250 box challenge,

I’m confused because I already did them in the first try when I started draw a box but I quit at that time I completed 250 box challenge and also completing lessons 2-4, but I didn’t share my progress and I’m returning to redo and have someone check my work so I’ll get feedback but again I’m concerned do I need to complete the 250 box challenge.

And yes my lines are still bad I tend to have shaky arms when doing long lines, I really do appreciate the feedback AzurBlazes, I’ll continue to get better

Don't worry, you'll steadily get better as you continue to practice your lines. As for the 250 Box Challenge, yes, you do have to continue forwards with it and get critiqued for it the same way. When you do the challenge, make sure to pace yourself each day.

Next Steps:

Continue to the 250 Box Challenge.

Staedtler Pigment Liners

Staedtler Pigment Liners

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).
