Hey dgscott922, great question!
Are you balancing your drawabox studies with the 50% rule in lesson 0? If so, what medium are you using for your own 50%, as it's totally up to you what you use! Now assuming that you're using whatever medium you want in the 50%, would you be willing to use a fineliner pen for the drawabox lessons?
Also, looking through your previous posts it seems, to me at least, that you might be putting too much pressure on yourself to get every line as straight as possible. The lines you drew were in all honesty "good enough", and even if they weren't, that's good too! It's perfectly fine to draw bad lines. Drawabox is supposed to show you mistakes as blatantly as possible, making it easy to identify mistakes and recommend the next steps forward. This is partially done through using fineliner, as it reveals all of your marks and decisions to us, remove that grey area that pencil and other mediums may bring. I also agree with some of the points FLOTSCHOS made, this will get better with mileage!
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!
