Hey Reboot, thank you very much for your critique!

I think most of my mistakes were due to not enough ghosting and a little bit of rushing the exercises. When I take more time, I have better results.

Here is my revisions: https://imgur.com/a/7ksgZjv

The messed up boxes were done too fast, the better ones were done with a lot of ghosted lines and more time to think what result I want before drawing a line.

Thanks again for your time!

Well done, you organic boxes have improved quite much. Your lines are way more confident, especially in your boxes and dont show much arcing, its still not perfect but better.

Keep practicing your lines for atleast 5 min before a session, and add 15 min of ellipses or boxes till your lines dont arc as much anymore. Do remember to take your time ghosting and planning.

Now you can go to the box challenge, hell awaits you

In all seriousnes the box challenge will be difficult, but keep pushing. From experience, that feeling of getting there is so damn good and you will improve on your art alot

Next Steps:

Move on to The 250 box challenge

Cool, thank you!

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.
