Congrats on completing lesson 1. Lets start with the super imposed lines. They're maintaining a consistent trajectory and you attempted some curly ones which is a bonus. Solid attempt. Moving on to the ghosted lines exercise, a good attempt. I like that you kept the points small so that the line basically swallows them up so to speak which is essentially the point of the exercise, a bit of overshooting but that's okay that will improve over time. Solid attempt on the table of ellipses, however I have seen a few ellipses that have gaps in between each other. This can be avoided by ghosting a little longer.

Good attempt on the ghosted planes with the ellipses. FIrst off the ghosted lines are well drawn, however some of the ellipses aren't touching all four sides of the plane again here spend a little longer ghosting so that you can achieve that.

Good work on the funnels exercise

Nice work on the plotted perspective. I like that the shading is consistent and not all over the place. As for rough perspective I would say is solid. However, a few lines lack confidence. Remember all your doing is draw a line from point A to point B. So if you can confident lines in the ghosted lines exercise then you can have confident ones here too. Great job on the rotated boxes, the boxes are actually rotating and the spaces in between are narrow and consistent and most importantly you saw the exercise through to the end. FInally the organic perspective is a solid attempt, I can see a few lines you aren't sure of and hence the urge to correct them. This can be handled by taking some time to ghost a little longer as I have mentioned above

Next Steps:

You can move on the 250 boxes challenge. Good luck! Try ghosting a little longer than you usually do when attempting the challenge

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
