Hi, I'm PGcools and I'll review your work.
I see you have worked very hard in this lesson, keep up the good work. Let's start.
Lines
Your line exercises are fine, but you made 2 pages of Ghosted Lines when you should have done 1. The mistakes I see are arching the liens and a lot of wobbliness. I think you should try and draw with more confidence, taking the time to slowly ghost each and every line. To prevent the arching make sure you are drawing from your shoulder and try arching the lines in the opposite direction while ghosting. Also remember that the first line in Superimposed lines must be straight, drawn with a ruler. And in Ghosted Lines I'd recommend to try and draw dots randomly in the page and then connecting them, you seem to draw them in a row following each other.
Ellipses
Just like with lines ellipses should be drawn with confidence and no hesitation. Many of yours are wobbly. However, you made a goog job fitting them in the tables and the planes and with the minor axis in Funnels.
Boxes
I see some improvement in your lines here, that's great. But in a few occasions you have repeated a line, which should not be done, no matter how off it is. You seemed to have had a hard time with Rotated Boxes. I think that you should definitely try and dedicate more time before drawing each stroke, making sure you have placed the dots in the right spot and in this case, making sure the lines are straight. Remember you can use the lines of the box of the side to draw the lines of the rotated box.
Lastly, there are perspective problems, but that will be take care of in the 250 boxes challenge.
Next Steps:
Nice job! Tackle the 250 boxes challenge.

Thanks for you review. I gonna pay more attencion in these details. And about the lines, i make sure i'm drawing from the shoulder, but as you say, i need to slown down. I make then fast and they tend to be arching and woobling.
The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
