Hello Alex, I hope you are well.
You have made a good attempt at those boxes. You are correctly extending your lines toward vanishing points away from the viewer and hatching.
You are having a bit of trouble with an inner corner, which will come out wrongly if your other corners are placed badly, but it is not happening often for you.

There is visible positive improvement from you over the challenge. That said, you are only putting your vanishing points very close to the box and I would love it if you had more experience with boxes that have vanishing points outside the “page” before moving into later lessons.
I know it sound like a torture to do more boxes, but I belive doing another 15 will help you in future.
Next Steps:
Please submit 15 more boxes with vanishing points outside the "page"

Well your boxes were good enough already, you had a slight problem with convergence, but it wasn't that extreme for a redo.
I wanted to make sure you can make a box that has vanishing points really far away(as this is helpful for later lessons) and also get a little better at the convergence. You did get better so I will mark this challenge as complete.
Also if you can I would highly recommend using a A4 copy paper for draw a box, as notebook paper with lines really flattens out our drawing and it can be in small format. Drawing small can be awkward and problematic for us.
Have fun during your journey,

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
