Hello and good job on finishing the challenge.
Your improvement is clearly visible through the challenge. Especially with the divergence of the lines to the back, you got way more stable at them. I have a few overall things that could help.
You still have some wobble in your lines, doing some more of lesson 1 line exercises in the warm up could help and try more ghosting on individual lines.
If you want to make it look more cleaner and technical (if you mean that with more realistic) try to stick with the same degree in the hatching on all boxes and try to hatch only the same side.
And definitely add some line weight to your boxes, it helps the look overall and its more practice so a win win in my book.
On the rest you did a pretty good job.
You can go for the Additional Box Exercises if you want to get a better hang for them.

And good luck with the other lessons.
Thanks for the comments!
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.
