Hello! After four days of work I finally finished lesson one's homework. Of the exercises I've completed so far, Organic Perspective, Rough Perspective, and the Rotated Cubes assignments were the hardest for me. It was difficult, but very satisfying to be able to be able to look back on once I finished drawing. I completed these pages using a ballpoint ink pen, as I didn't have a fine-liner handy. However, I do plan to go back and complete these assignments with the recommended materials once I am able to purchase them. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)

wow, impressive bro, keep it up.

it's really great but your rotated boxes doesn't looks spherical it okay tho, it'll improve through constant practice and taking on the 250 box challenge.

I'd also like you to drop your critics on my assignments, good luck bro.

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.

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.
