Hi! I just started myself, so I'm not sure If I'm qualified to give to much feedback, but here are some things I noticed!
-going forward, I think it would be a good idea to try to fill your pages up a bit more! For example on the plotted perspective, one of the frames only has one large box in it. The rotated boxes also seems to be missing a few boxes- the example has two coming out diagonally from the center, but I can only make out one coming out diagonally from the center box for each quadrant in your work. The table of ellipses has some spots that could probably fit some more smaller ellipses as well!
I would suggest going back in, especially with the rotated boxes, and add the missing boxes!
-some of the boxes in the later exercises seem to have a little bit of chicken scratching. It doesn't seem to be too much, so I think it's definitely something that will improve with more time and practice, but I thought it would be helpful to point out so you can be more aware of it!
Next Steps:
Add missing boxes to rotated boxes assignment

Hello AlWonder,
Your line flow is good enough for 250 boxes challenge, but i recommend a revision of "Plotted Perspective" lesson. Some boxes are distorted because the lines exceed the vanishing point.
Next Steps:
Revision of Plotted Perspective Lesson
1 filled page of Boxes in Plotted Perspective
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. 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.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
