Congrats on completing them! You've done a decent job here. While you've correctly used the neighboring elements to deduce the next orientation of boxes, I think you could've done more with the rotations.

It's very common for students to confuse rotation with convergence of the boxes. When rotating our boxes, at least one of the boxes' sets of parallel edges will have its vanishing point move - frequently it'll be two. If our boxes have the same vanishing point, then they're not rotating. (https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/21/notrotating)

Then again this is a hard exercise by itself so don't think too much about it for now. I'm looking forward to your improvement in the 250 box challenge!

Next Steps:

Move onto the 250 box challenge.

Do the lesson 1 exercises as your regular warmup and don't forget your 50% rule art.

This critique marks this lesson as complete.

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
