Hey! Congratulations on completing lessons 1!
You have done a great job!
I'll be going over each exercise individually, if at the end you're left with any questions don't hesitate to ask.
Superimposed lines
These look pretty good, but there's the slightest bit of fraying going on on both sides, so make sure to place the pen carefully at the starting point when putting down your mark.
Ghosted lines
These are great, there's a bit of wobbling here and there but with time that'll go away.
Ghosted planes
It's great, but I can still see little bit of wobbling here and there.
Table of ellipses
In general these are well-drawn, the problem, however, is that the position some of these is off. You want your ellipses to fit in snugly between each other and touch but remain within their boundaries. Make sure to take your time ghosting not only the shape of the ellipse, but also in the right position.
Ellipses in planes
There's a lot of improvement here! However, I can still see the position problems like the one in Table of Ellipses. It's okay tho because this will go away with time!
Funnels
These look good.
Plotted perspective
These look great.
Rough perspective
In this exercise you want to make sure to keep your width/height lines parallel/perpendicular to the horizon respectively, which is something I don't see being done continuously, and is something to keep in mind. The perspective looks accurate and is well done.
Rotated boxes
These look quite accurate, and in the box challenge you'll improve even further.
Organic perspective
There are great, but there some of the boxes perspective are off. This can be remedied in the 250 box challenge tho.
You did an excellent job here, you're definitely ready for the box challenge. Good luck!
Next Steps:
Continue with 250 box challenge!

Thank you so much for the feedback! It was really helpful and I'm excited to keep going with more lessons (already done the 250 box challenge but haven't submitted it)

This error was present in each excercise: Not missng the point on both ends. You dont seem to be positioning your pen in its proper starting place consistently.
Lines****
Im not seeing a second page of superimposed lines.
In each excercise you have a lot of line confidence.
ELLIPSES**
A lot of floating elipses.
Boxes****
Rotated perspective is just amazing.
Njengat covered everything else id want to say.
Next Steps:
One more page of superimposed lines. Remember to position your pen in its starting mark properly.
Afterwards, move on! Great job
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. 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.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
