250 Box Challenge

I know about my mistake from box 1-50 of extending the lines towards the viewer. Sorry about that!
Hi, XTRAZ. Congrats on completing the 250 box challenge. Here's my critique:
The inner corner is sometimes off making the lines not always converge to a single point but its a common mistake and if you carefully plan each line and where they converge you'll see this problem disappear in the future.
I recommend using more line weight in lines so the box feels more present and doesn't get drowned by the colored ones.
Remember to always take your time when ghosting and the executing the lines with confidence. Each line is a unit of work so you should plan and take your time with every single one so you don't rush them and they dont end up with wobble.
Try do add more variation with the vanishing point like making it be closer to the box you are drawing to see different type of boxes. Still, most of them vary in size and shape so good job!!
I've marked this as complete. Good luck on lesson 2!
Next Steps:
Lesson 2
A lot of folks have heard about Scott Robertson's "How to Draw" - it's basically a classic at this point, and deservedly so. It's also a book that a lot of people struggle with, for the simple reason that they expect it to be a manual or a lesson plan explaining, well... how to draw. It's a reasonable assumption, but I've found that book to be more of a reference book - like an encyclopedia for perspective problems, more useful to people who already have a good basis in perspective.
Sketching: The Basics is a far better choice for beginners. It's more digestible, and while it introduces a lot of similar concepts, it does so in a manner more suited to those earlier in their studies.
