Your linework is pretty solid.
For the "plotted perspective," you were supposed to use a pen to draw the line back to the vanishing point, but it looks like you used a pencil for that.
The horizon line is tilted a little in some of your drawings, so you could work to make them more level.
Make sure your boxes' lines converge at a vanishing point. you can go over your previously drawn boxes and fix them to get better.
Good job!
Next Steps:
work on perspective with boxes. dont rush horizon lines.

Thank you for your critic, I will keep in mind that the horizon line is better located in the following exercises, and use a pen for drawn "plotted perspective" exercises, I'm pleasantly surprised that you tell me my line is solid, I was afraid it wasn't good enough, again thank you for all.

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.
