Heyyyy SNAKE_FARTS (lol)! I wanna congratulate you on completing lesson 1. With that said lets get to the critique.
LinesI like your line exercises in this homework, they're smooth, drawn confidently. Nothing to complain about. However, outside the exercises dedicated to lines you seem to have thrown out all of that. You're redrawing lines, obviously not using the ghosting method. You even have some places where you use chicken scratching! Your lines should be continuous and unbroken, and doing that flies right in the face of it.
EllipsesAs for your ellipses, there's also a few things to mention:
-
You draw through them too many times, 2-3 times is the recommended amount, no more, no less.
-
In your Tables of ellipses, markes Ex#4 you have two panels missing? And also the second row on the right doesn't really make sense for the exercise.
Boxes
The first page of the rough perspective exercise looks really good, except for the few lines that weren't extended. But this only begs the question: What happened to the second page of this exercise? It completely misses point, your lines are ... missing at places.. it's really messy.
The rotated boxes has a lot of issues. I suggest watching the video attached to the lesson to get a better understanding of how this exercise works.
Your organice pespective however shows better understanding of boxes.
Next Steps:
Sadly I'm ognna have to ask for some revisions from you:
-
1 page of tables of ellipses, please pay attention to how you draw your ellipses through
-
1 page of rough perspective
-
1 page of rotated boxes
And please make sure to pay attention to your lines. I swear they're more important than they seem at first.

hello snake_fart **
am tempestsnow I'll be criticizing your assignments to the best of my ability.
we'll take it one after the other.
superimposed line: you made a lot of wavering on both side of your lines try placing your pen at the starting point of the line and always make a confident line, i can also see that you didn't draw through a line 8 times follow the instructions for each assignments.
ghosted lines: you did a great job making confident lines, nothing much to say about this.
ghosted plane: great.
table of ellipses: you're asked to draw through your ellipses two times, i can see you drew through it a lot, draw through your ellipses two times even if it's not well angled. accuracy will improve through time
ellipses in plane: draw through your ellipses only 2 times and make draw it confidently so that you won't end up making wobbling ellipses.
funnels: great
plotted perspective: kudos on this.
rough perspective: you're asked to draw through your boxes, follow the instructions for each assignments.
rotated boxes: your boxes isn't well rotated, work more on it
organic perspective: i can see you made a lot of lines at some point on a box, ones you make a single stroke leave it don't try to correct it by making another stroke on it, make your page neat so that it'll be easy for the reader to understand what you're drawing.
follow instructions and do warm up on previous lessons every day, take two or three exercise and work on it for 15 or 20 minutes.
Next Steps:
redo the rough perspective and draw through your boxes

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
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.
