These are looking better, 2, 3 and 6 in particular. Only thing I'd like to point out is that box 1 has the top face hidden, like it happens in 2 point perspective. This doesn't normally happen to rectangular boxes in 3 point perspective since it's the perspective of an object with all of its faces oriented at an angle with respect to our line of sight (by contrast, in 1 point we are observing the boxes with their "depth lines" parallel to our line of sight and both verticals and horizontals perpendicular to it, while in 2 point we are in the same situation as in 1 point, but with the box rotated around a vertical axis). I advise you to keep exercising in your warmup routines on box-related exercise. Slowly but surely, you will see improvement. As a last line of advice, I will drop here one of my other critiques where I give some tips on how to improve your back corners (the method I use is illustrated in the replies): https://drawabox.com/community/submission/87XZS5GL

That being said, I'll go on and mark your lesson as complete. Hope you will have some fun with lesson 2. Good luck and good work!

Thank you for you time and guidance

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
