Heyho,
first: congratulations on drawing the 250 boxes
All in all your lines seems pretty confident, although there are some mistakes here and there. In most cases its just some overshooting, what isn’t such a problem. But I also saw some wobbly lines and some that bend. Keep that in mind when you go forward and concentrate on doing straight confident lines, while using your shoulder.
I see a proper improvement of your line convergence after box 85+, that continues until the end.
What is a bit sad is, that you barely draw boxes with strong foreshortening (https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/1/foreshortening) and very different scale (e.g. two very long and one very short axis, or two very shot axes and one very long). In my opinion such boxes help to get a better understanding of the line convergence and how lines interact. I would recommend drawing one, maybe 2 of such boxes as a warm up when you go forward with lesson 2.
All in all seems pretty decent. So have fun with the next lesson :D
Next Steps:
Hit lesson 2 :D
Maybe add some very different boxes with strong foreshortening to your warm up when go forward.

Marco Bucci's Getting Started with Digital Painting
Marco Bucci's got a ton of great courses available on proko.com, including some of the best videos you can find on using colour and light. Since a lot of our students want to break into working with digital painting however, I thought this course in particular would be a great start to get into the weeds with how to navigate the confusing world of layers, brushes, and more.
This course highlights programs across the full spectrum of options, ranging from the current industry standard Adobe Photoshop, to the Free-and-Open-Source darling Krita, as well as the mobile favourite, Procreate.
Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.
Consider the following:
- If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
- Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
- Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
- Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook
Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
