Hello and congrats on completing the assignment. I'll be taking a look at your boxes today. So starting off your line work and hatching on these is excellent. You very clearly used the ghosting method to great success and really took your time with your hatching as well. Once we move past that though and start analyzing your box constructions though I'm seeing a lot of issues we need to take care of. So starting off you are getting your line extensions wrong a lot throughout all of these pages. Since you didn't number each box it's hard to call these out specifially. Please check the lesson notes here. https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/1/wrongdirection The reason I think you are struggling with this is that you are having lots of problem with lines diverging from your vanishing point instead of converging towards them. It also appears to me that you started "solving" this problem by reverting to using parallel lines for all sides of your boxes which isn't really a fix. Please check this graphic. https://i.imgur.com/8PqQLE0.png One of the key things you need to understand in your head when you are drawing a box is that all boxes in perspective will have lines that CONVERGE towards a vanishing point and will never diverge. Even boxes with very little foreshortening that appear to have parallel lines really don't. If they did have actually parallel lines that would mean the box is growing in size as it moves back in perspective. So even boxes that have what you may think are parallel lines those lines are really converging it's just by such a small amount that you don't really perceive it. So while I think your boxes are looking a bit more solid as you moved through these pages I think it's because you fell into a bit of a crutch that you are leaning on and because you were relying on parallel lines so heavily it led to some of your lines actually diverging instead of converging like they should. I'm going to recommend you watch the 250 box challenge video again and reread the lesson. I think you could a refresher on box constructions and I'm going to want you to do 25 more boxes. This time try and mix it up between boxes with more extreme foreshortening and less foreshorterning and try not to rely on parallel lines so much. https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/1/foreshortening
You did a good job here particularly with your line work and following most of the directions but I really think you need a bit better understanding of box constructions before moving forwards.
Next Steps:
Rewatch the 250 Box Challenge Video and reread the lesson. 25 More Boxes with a mix of foreshortening. Extend your lines correctly.
