Personally I think you should move on to the 250 box challenge to get a better understanding of 3D space overall I think your work is quite good your lines are very clean
I would also say you should practice drawing ellipses using your shoulder more
overall I think you did a great job (I'm new to criticing work so I hope this helps)
Next Steps:
250 box challenge
Planes of ellipses

Hey Edamame,
I agree withe Beesechurger but have an additional comment.
Your work is looking good with the exception of the rotated boxes exercise. You did not follow the instructions, the boxes should only have a small distance between the different front faces. I am guessing you wanted to challenge yourself, which is fine - or you got confused. Either way doing the 250 box challenge will help you get a better understanding of perspective.
Next Steps:
You should move on to the 250 box challenge if you haven't already!

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Pentel Pocket Brush Pen
This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.
Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
