In the arrow exercise I like how you showed depth with the width variation.
-
The eclipses need to be worked on a little bit. They are off. Also in the countour lines the lines a straighter. I would curve them a little.
-
I really like the lines you are drawing they are good.
-
The shadows in construction exercises are a bit off. But you will get them eventually.
-
Need to focus more on drawing the eclipses.

I think while drawing the cylinders drawing major and minor axis helped me a lot in understanding in 3D. You should try it too. It might be a help.
I liked the the overall work you did. I will mark the lesson as complete. My work needs review too. It would be great it you have some time.
Next Steps:
Onward to lesson 3. Maybe have a look at 250 cylinders challenge and get a rough idea about drawing cylinder. And bit by bit tacking the 25 textures challenge.
Pentel Pocket Brush Pen
This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
