Lines:
your lines are confident but they have a slight tendency to bend especially towards the endpoints which becomes more noticable in your ghosted lines, planes and boxes.When you were drawing a line it looked like you would course correct when you realized you weren't going to reach your distination. Your ghosted lines, planes and boxes also show accuracy issues. Remember when using the ghosting method and shoulder pivot try to focus on making the movement with your shoulder instead of making the mark on the page.
Planes:
Ignoring your linework problems your planes are very good a must commend variety of planes you have made. You used forshortening and understand how the center of the plane can change because of this
Ellipses:
Isn't anything I feel I can criticize they are tight, accurate, and confident which is very good
Boxes:
Aside from your linework I don't think I can critique anything you have some issues with perspective but those are expected. The purpose of the 250 box challenge is to iron those out be so don't hard on yourself regarding your rough perspective attempts.
Good Job I think you are ready to move on. Just be sure to add ghosted lines, and planes to your warmps
Next Steps:
Complete 250 boxes

Thank you!
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. 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.
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.
