Lines
Lines are pretty good in general, good confidence, keep it up like that and you'll nail the accuracy.
Ellipses
Ellipses start a bit wobbly, but they end up being pretty confident and smooth, good job! Just as a note, keep in mind the funnel's axis needs to cut the ellipses in identical halves.
Boxes
Pretty good job here as well, you're overshooting some of the lines quite a bit, which hints me you might be rushing a bit on some of them, dont' forget to take your time on each line doing your best if that's the case.
Lastly, don't repeat lines, no matter how off they're, as it makes the drawings messier.
And on organic perspective, you can add lineweight to overlaps to clarify relationships between the boxes, it helps a lot.
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.
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!
NOTE: here's a quick guide on critiquing lesson 1 submissions.
There are a few people that feel hesitant to critique because they feel they aren't ready to it so hopefully it'll help you in case you are one of those people.
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
