Congratulations for completing the 250 Box Challenge!
You did a pretty good job on the challenge overall. When I compare your early work to your final pages I can see that the quality of your mark making has shown some improvement. Your lines steadily become smoother and more confident looking overall. You have a good variety of foreshortening and orientation to your boxes. You also do a better job of getting your sets of parallel lines to converge more consistently towards their shared vanishing points!
One thing I notice about your mark making is that you have some arcing to your lines. You can read about how to correct this here. Something to keep in mind as well, when you are working through Drawabox you should be employing the ghosting method for every mark you make. This includes the hatching that we sometimes use for our boxes. You should also never try to hide or correct any mistake you make while working through Drawabox.
Just remember that the confidence of the stroke is far and away your top priority. Once your pen touches the page, any opportunity to avoid mistakes has passed, so all you can really do is push through. Hesitation serves no purpose. Mistakes happen, but a smooth, confident mark is still useful even if it's a little off. Accuracy is something that you will improve on as you continue working through Drawabox and practice ghosting.
Finally while your converges do improve overall I think this diagram will help you further develop that skill as you continue through Drawabox. So, when you are looking at your sets of lines you want to be focusing only on the lines that share a vanishing point. This does not include lines that share a corner or a plane, only lines that converge towards the same vanishing point. Now when you think of those lines, including those that have not been drawn, you can think about the angles from which they leave the vanishing point. Usually the middle lines have a small angle between them, and this angle will become negligible by the time they reach the box. This can serve as a useful hint.
Congrats again and good luck with lesson 2!
