Hello Novembr, I will be reviewing your lesson 1 homework. I would like to start off by saying great job on completing the first lesson. LINES - They look good, for the most part. Only thing I would like to mention is on ghosted lines there is some overshooting. Be sure to lift your hand off the paper right as you hit the second dot. Also be mindful of loosening up your arm and drawing from your shoulder, the more you focus on this now the easier it will become. ELLIPSES - These are good too, I like how compact they are in the tables of ellipses exercise, and how they fill up your ghosted planes, really well done. For the funnels exercise, make sure to try and make the ellipses get bigger as they move out from the center. BOXES - Make sure to use the ghosting method even for these boxes. Your organic perspective looks really good, it seems like you're making good use of the ghosting method. Overall really great work. I think you are good for the 250 box challenge. Good luck!

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.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
