The proportions and the perspective look very nice. And I like how you applied atmospheric perspective to the mountains in the background.

I haven't learn proportions yet :(, but i'm quite surprised with your feedback.

It looks believable and solid when I look at your drawing. Also, the perspective gives the illusion of 3-D space, so I wanted to express this. I didn't learn about perspective or proportions either. But as I keep drawing for fun, the end results of the new drawings becomes better in each time, because of my increased visual library. And even if I don't think about some specific proporitons or perspective rules all the time, I can draw more accurate scenes. That's what I felt when I look at your drawing. It was a believable scene, I really didn't think about the techniques applied in it, I just thouth that it had nice proportions. I am sorry if I coused a confusion.

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Staedtler Pigment Liners
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).
