Superimposed lines: Your lines are pretty wobbly and not confident but you align your pen at the correct place.
Ghosted lines: Dots doesnt need to be that big and your lines are still wobbly, we want them to be smooth and confident
Ghosted planes: Your line quality increases a bit but remember, you need to use your arm and draw your line without hesitation
Ellipses in planes & Table of Ellipses: You need to complete your ellipses in 2-3 motions you can't build muscle memory with only one round
Funnels of ellipses: They get a bit better but remember, you need to use your arm
Plotted perspective: You could be a bit neater with your paper but it looks correct
Rough perpective: We don't draw over the same line in order to correct it. If it's not correct, leave it be and do better next time.
Organic perspective: I think this page looks like it's done a bit quickly. Make sure you read through the exercise page before you commit. I also recommend you to take a cube on your hand and examine how it looks like in different positions
Next Steps:
I recommend you to redo the exercise before you go further. You need to especially work on your line quality because every other exercise build on them
PureRef
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
