Had to scan them because my phone camera is really bad.

hello
Next Steps:
Super-Imposed Lines
for the super imposed lines, i see it that it is a bit wobbly for th elonger parts of the lines, but it is okay in the shorter ones and the curvy ones (there is no need for revision here, but i would sugest that you do this exercise in every session of your drawing)
?
Ghosting Lines
it is great for the most part there is nothing to say here. except i notice that some lines are out of page and i couldn't see the dot that suppose to connect to the first dot, but it is still a great exercise that you have done
?
Ghosting Planes
It is great there is nothinng to say here
?
Tables of Planes
for the most part everything looks fine, except most of the ellipses are really wobbly, i notice some improvements in the second page and your ellipses for the most part are within the bounds and they are great, but i would likely again suggest you to do warmups with this exercise before a session of drawing and remember to do 2 or 3 times the loop, and i would prefere you to reduce it when it feels natural to you to give some of those challenge to increse confidence and more sense of your getting used to it
?
Ellipses on Planes
again for the most part the ellipses are not smooth and not confident enough to reach the level of eveness, again there are some improvements here and there, but this time i would like this to be revision
?
Plotted Perspective
this is great for the most part and good to, even though there isn't any weight lines it is partial so i don't need it to be revision
?
Rough Perspective
i would like you to do just one page revision of this because in the first page i see that your boxes have improve but not in the second page of the exercise, it feels like your guessing instead of ghosting it toward the VP for convergence
?
Rotated Boxes
it is okay for the most part and it seems like you already understand it, but there are some repeating lines that are unneccesary to do and i would like you to dump that habit of repeating lines that are already have been made. And i would like you to make this a warm up, but if you don't feel comfortable doing it.
Record the exercise from when you begin the exercise until you finished what does it mean, well it's like this:
write 12;00 - 13;00 on top of the page in your warm up session
?
Organic Perspective
in this exercise the boxes are okay and don't need any revision for it's just don't repeat some lines next time
?

if there are any question i would be glad to answer
(and sorry for my english broken grammar and sorry if it doesn't suit your understanding, because english isn't my native languange)

Thank you for your feedback! Don't worry I understood it. When I redo Ellipses on Planes and Rough Perspective do I have to post it again for review?

not necessary you can just post just your redo in the comments and i would gladly look at it

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.
Sakura Pigma Microns
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.
