Thanks a lot for the critique!

Hi,
your lines seems to be quite confident. Only in some cases it looks like you bend them at the end toward ending dot - you can overshoot dot - it is confidency more important then accuracy; and if you doing line not accurately going through ending dot try to not correct this but do them as straight as possible.
Ellipses are also good, I just see in some that your lines are not confident, are wobbling and are stiff, they looks like done very slowly and carefully. You could try to draw them slightly quicker with shoulders and using ghosting.Again - smoothnes and confidence over accuracy.
Plotted perspective well done. Only two or three edges aren't parallel to horizon line. Correcting lies done correctly.
Rotated boxes are done good.
Organic perspective also gives impresion of space, boxes are made smaler as they are further.
Overall - well done. Use this exercises as a pool to your warm-ups.
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
