Your lines for the most part look good, no wobbles, nice confident strokes.

However, it appears that you didn't draw through your ellipses 2 or 3 times the majority of the time. This is very important as it allows you to get better at them exponentially. They do look fairly smooth and even, but you're ofteb missing the edges, causing floating ellipses which is a no-no in the lessons.

Also it appears that your organic perspective pages are missing, please add those in order to get it marked as complete.

Next Steps:

Add the organic perspective pages to get marked complete.

I'm not sure if you need to redo the ellipses exercises or if it's just a matter of making sure you draw through them 2 or 3 times going forward.

When finished, reply to this critique with your revisions.

thanks for the critique! I'll keep in mind to draw through ellipses.

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
