The imposed and ghosted lines feel very confident, however the ghosted lines kinda curve a bit. Just go with the flow and try to keep it straight, don't worry about accuracy too much. One thing to help out is to find a comfortable position with your shoulder and to relax the your muscles so that it'll flow better. Your planes feel confident and look great!

Thanks a lot for the feedback!!! Yeah, I'll need to work on using the soulder/elbow, takes a while to get used to that movement.

it'll take some time to get used to working from the shoulder, it can also be a work out sometimes, lol. just remember not to grind and to take breaks so that you dont stress yourself out.

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
