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 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.
