Your boxes look great! I can see the progression that your boxes took aiming at the vanishing points or having them just go parallel. I'd say your good to go to the next lesson!
Hello! I wanna add that there's a main problem in your boxes, and that's that they tend to still diverge from time to time.

To move on I think it's important that you realize why these boxes main mistake happens, why it's a mistake and how to solve it. The reason it's a mistake is because every single set of parallel lines of each box should converge in a single vanishing point.
If you don't know how to force at least the outer lines to be converging follow this tutorial step by step .
If you have any doubts please tell me! Try the tutorial out and do 1 more page of boxes (like 3 or 4 total boxes)
Good luck and keep it up! If you didn't understand anything reply and I'll do my best to expand
Next Steps:
1 page of boxes
Ah, ok that tutorial cleared something up from me, who knew when you plan out the vp better you actually dont have to gestimate as much lol
You still have some mistakes, could you go over the boxes (with another pen) to make sure you understand what you're doing wrong? Correct the lines to how they should have been
was difficult for me to do that after everything were there but i tred, and also just did it over. https://imgur.com/a/njnEBns
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).
