Very, very nice work! Your linework is really fantastic - clean, concise, and excellent use of line weight. You're also improving considerably over the course of the whole challenge with the convergences of your parallel lines towards their vanishing points, so that is also coming along great. I unfortunately don't have anything constructive to offer - your work is solid, so praise is all I've got.

Onto lesson 2!

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.
The Art of Blizzard Entertainment
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
