Your lines looks very nice aswell your ellipses!
Your lines are pretty good, but I saw some kinda of wobbling in the boxes.
Your ellipses are very nice! But in the table of ellipses some are in the wrong axis.
Next Steps:
I think you are pretty solid for the next lessons! Go for it.

Thankyou, these were done before I was sure I would be signing up.
I am doing the 250 box challenge at the moment and my lines are getting much straighter.
Does this count as official critique? I am a bit bemused as to where community, official critiques ( ie patreon credit ones ) are done. Also when this forum should be used or the reddit one ( I'm not a fan of reddit )?
I will go back to the lesson 2 shortly and take a break from boxes at the halfway point I think.
PS when you say ellipses are off-axis, is this on the page with boxes filled with ellipses? Have I missed a rule?

I'm just a student as you, I found this post when searching for examples and to see how well the community is doing.
As far as I know normal users can mark a lesson as complete.
When you submitted your work you checked the box for official critique? If so maybe you need waiting...
About the ellipses it's nothing special is just my opinion what you may improve, some are more tilted thank other but don't take this serious because I'm not an expert or anything I'm just trying to help people to improve :)

Thanks, i appreciate any feedback as it helps me take a closer look. I didn't upload for official critique cause I hadn't signed up at the point.
I think I will need to re-upload and check the right box.
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.
PureRef
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
