hey dobe2180! i'm koyomi and i'm going to review your lesson 1 submission.
1.lines
your superimposed lines don't look straight enough,did you draw with your wrist ??? try using your shoulder and if it's still difficult why don't u put 2 dots with a ruler as horizontal line and then connect them just like you draw super imposed lines this will give u sense of straightness when drawing
2.elipses
your elipses still look messy and i think if you wanna make a good elipses use your shoulder and do ghosting technique to draw elipses it's quite similar to how we draw straight linesbo3.boxes
your rotated boxes problem is they don't look rotated so i will tell u the key, it is find the vanishing points using your neighbouring edges,the vanishing points are located along the horizontal line,the more rotated the box the more vansihing points are getting closer to each other along the horizontal lineNext Steps:
1 super imposed lines
1 ghosting lines
1 elipses
1 rotated boxes

allright afer seeing your lines it looks like you take time to stoke it and your elipses look better and for your rotated boxes they look okay but it's okay it's a tough lesson and i think it's time for you to move to 250 boxes exercise

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.
