Congratulations in completing this challenge, it was hard and time demanding, but you nailed it! Well done!
You don´t seem to have too many mistakes, rather than having dramatic foreshortening (check out 71, 103, ,196, 202, 227) and just a few few lines marked towards the viewer.
Conceptual mistakes
- There are a few pages that you made more than 5-6 boxes, this made you draw smaller boxes, it´s preferable that you draw bigger.
Next Steps:
Now, the fun part of this course, click on lesson 2 and start developing that texture. Make sure you keep drawing a few boxes as warmup before every session.

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
The Art of Brom
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
