Thanks for your feedback, I added the lines on rough perspective. Can I just pass the 250 box challenge and start directly from the lesson 2? I was doing it but it's gonna take so much time. I drew 25 boxes only.

As I can only review things which I can see, I can't approve Lesson 1 right now.
Regarding your question....
"Can I just pass the 250 box challenge and start directly from the lesson 2?"
You can do what you want. You can skip all lessons and go directly to lesson 7, no one will stop you and if you are convinced it's the best for you, do it. If you do so, you will leave the drawabox philosophy and you will not complete this course. The 250 box challenge is there for a reason and it will give you some "Milage" in training perspective. Your question is like a person who want learn to climb on a high mountain and second exercise is to climb 250 times a wall. You tell your coach "I did it only 25 times, because it's so exhausting, can I directly go to the mountain?"
I don't recommend to skip any exercise, but it's up to you.
As a reference I have drawn 6 Boxes a day, which means 42 days of drawing to pass the 250 box challenge. I haven't drawn every day and not every day boxes, so it took me 3 months to pass.
If you want to pass Lesson 1, please upload second page of superimposed lines and show me the mentioned "I added the lines on rough perspective".
Best,

Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
