Superimposed lines
I see fraying at the beginning of some of your lines. Remember after you execute the line to take a moment to realign your pen to the beginning
Ghosted lines
Your lines look straight, the only thing I have to say is that once you execute the line, youre done with it and trying to grind it out to perfect it by drawing over it again will only delay you from moving on. Remember that we can overtime get better by using these as practice when we start our lessons. So you'll have plenty of time to work on it later.
Ghosted planes and ellipses
They look good, I do see wobbling in your ellipses. Remember once the pen hits the page to draw through your ellipses quickly to prevent that
Table of ellipses
Some of your ellipses are floating instead of touching eachother on the bottom panel. But aside from that and the wobbling I think you did good.
Funnels
They look good. You could maybe make the funnels longer, and when you try to lengthen the degree of the ellipses make sure the do it throughout all of the funnel to. Your top left funnel on the left side is the same degree but when you look to the right of the funnel you can see the degree lengthening
Plotted perspective
looks good!
Rough perspective
Remember to execute your ghosted line once. I would also say we are not supposed to be drawing our red line back to the vanishing point but drawing it back to the horizon line instead using the line we put down. Reference the homework example that is provided in the lesson. We are supposed to be making mistakes on this one and seeing them. Good job on keeping it in 1vp
Rotated boxes
Two mistakes, you're not keeping your boxes together and you are not rotating. You can use the neighboring box to plot your lines, this will keep the boxes more together. And in some you did shift your vanishing point, but not on all of them.
Organic perspective
You did a good job showing further to closer
Next Steps:
Redo the ghosted line lesson and the rough perspective. One thing I consistently see in your work is chicken scratch. Remember that a straight confident line is the foundation of these lesson. And that accuracy comes later. I also feel like you would really benefit from redoing the rough perspective. Dont forget to plot the lines back to the horizon line, not the vp. If you rewatch the video it will better explain that! Dont forget to take breaks

Thank you for your feedback, it was really helpful. I noticed how little attention I paid to some of the instructions.
My pen skips quite a bit so my lines look incomplete from time to time. I tried not to complete them this time to avoid chicken scratchy look.
Here's my second attempt to the ghosted line and the rough perspective exercises:

These look much better! I'll mark the lesson as complete
For what its worth, I don't think you're not paying attention. I think youre just getting alot of information and it takes awhile to digest alot of it, which is why he has us read through the lessons to refresh before we warmup. You're going to get better and better with time. Keep up the good work!
Next Steps:
I would say move onto the 250 box section

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks
These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
