Congrats on finishing first lesson.
Your lines looks fine though sometimes they get a little bit wobbly, ellipses are difficult, so I'd recommend adding exercises like Planes and elipses and Funnels to your warm up.
Rotated boxes it looks like you're missing boxes in the edges but well done :)
Organic perspective you got mistakes on the perspective of the boxes, which is completely normal, and nothing to worry about as you'll practice it on the box challenge.
Overall good job.
Next Steps:
First of all, congratulations on finishing lesson 1! Your next step is the box challenge.
As I marked this as complete, you are now qualified to critique lesson 1 submissions.
-Doing critiques is a way of learning and solidifying concepts. I can atest to that after having done hundreds of critiques. There are a lot of concepts that I did not understand, and thanks to critiquing I started understanding them. Which made me learn a lot more through the course.
-Another thing is that as the number of current submissions is super high, if you critique some critiques, those would be less critiques I'd have to critique before reaching your next submissions, so you'd get your critiques faster. The new system ordering submissions also makes that the more agrees your critiques have the higher you'll be placed in the queue of critiques, which will improve your chances of getting critiques faster as well.
It's totally optional of course, I won't force anyone to give critiques. But me and the other people who are critiquing would be super grateful if you gave it a shot.
Good luck on the box challenge, and keep up the good work!

I didn't really notice that my lines got a bit wobbly. So thanks a lot for pointing that out.

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.
