I'm working on the 250 box challenge and one thing which I am struggling to see consistent issues, things are wrong, but not wrong in ways I can identify as similar, I feel like I don't know enough to know what I'm doing wrong maybe?, admittedly I'm only 20 boxes in so maybe too soon to actually see such patterns.
20 boxes is still very early on in the challenge and it should start to click further on. Patterns should emerge as you get further into the challenge and the way you'll see the boxes will change greatly. Mistakes will become more obvious. I will echo PandaCatLad, as long as you understand the objectives you're shooting for then you should be alright.
I'd be happy to look at a few of your boxes, if you'd like some feedback.
It started to make a little bit more sense to me after the 100th box or so, as long as all the lines converge on a 3- point perspective kind of way you're doing it right
What always helps is to go back to the videos and read the material again. I'm on box 185 now and experience that boxes will get better and worse again and then better again. Just keep going and look forward to that moment when you'll groe more confident with practice.

I also hope that this picture can help you as well :)

Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
