Hi! Nice work!

Your lines are straight and confident with a nice degree of accuracy. Your ellipses are consistent and mostly feel smooth. I see some extra circling of the stroke on the ellipses, you should keep it at two or three to strive for a more accurate result.

Also the perspective exercises seems pretty well done to me, I have no major observations to make. About the organic perspective, the preferred approach would be to always draw the whole shape of the box, even if it appears to be behind another box or partially covered by it.

If you haven't already done so, you could watch the review linked at the end of lesson 1: https://youtu.be/5cciOw9z6IU. You can compare your homework to the one that is getting reviewd, I found it really helpful!

I'd say you're headed in the right direction, keep up the good work!

Next Steps:

You can follow the suggestion at the end of lesson 1 and proceed with the 250 box challenge, good luck!

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
