Your work is pretty good your lines are very clean I would however suggest that you work on ellipses just a bit more as some of them seem to taper a bit but overall I feel your ready to move on
Next Steps:
I suggest you try tackling the 250 box challenge in order to gain a better grasp of 3D space and work a bit more on ellipses

I think this is great job on Lesson 1, all lines are clean and confident, and all exersices look very solid.
I do see some pointy ellipses, and you probably need to work on drawing from your shoulder (because pointy ellipse = elbow/wrist). But this can be incorporated in your regular warm-up routine.
I'm sure you should move to 250 box challenge, and good luck!

Hey Fiyole,
Your work is hard to critique as you are clearly more experienced than me. I don't see any obvious mistakes, your lines are very clean and confident. It seems perspective is not an issue for you so I am not sure if the 250 box challenge would benefit you.
Maybe you should move on to lesson 2, your call.
Keep on keepin' on!
Next Steps:
Either do the 250 boxes or start with lesson 2!

Color and Light by James Gurney
Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
