Lines
lines look nice and confident, with some of the longer ones I can see you struggled with. These you draw same as the shorter ones. Drawing from the shoulder, ghosting and speedily drawing it in. With practice you will improve. I see one long line which has a wobbly part. remember you must draw these with speed. Don't draw it slowly trying to follow the line, this causes all those little chages in direction on the line. So you ghost until confident with the motion, put the fineliner on the start of the line then in one committed swoop motion move the fineliner to the end. Ghosted lines look okay, keep on ghosting and drawing those from the shoulder. Ghosted planes look okay, I see one or two shaky lines. Remember to take a break if you get tired. I assume you had gotten tired and rushed those few.
Ellipses
A good number of your ellipses look nice and confident, However I see some especially the ellipses in the planes that are not. I can see you drew these slowly trying to make them touch all the sides resulting in a boxy appearance. You should instead ghost the ellipse where you want to place it to confidence. The ghosting will handle the accuracy fro you. You should just be executing confident ellipses. I can see the narrower ellipses in the table of ellipses you also struggled with, ghost these too.
In the table of ellipses remember ellipses next to each other should be touching, no gaps.
In the funnels ellipses look confident but you should only draw through 3 or 2 times. https://d15v304a6xpq4b.cloudfront.net/lesson_images/a76a8906.jpg
Boxes
Plotted perspective look good. With the hatching, remember there are boxes that overlap other boxes, So if a box is overlapped, the hatching on the box behind it cant be seen.
Rough perspective remember the horizontal lines of the boxes are parallel to the horizon and the vertical lines are perpendicular to the horizon. This should help better plot your lines.
On rotated boxes remember there is a center box , then two above and two below. You have 3 above and 3 below. Then on the sides you should have 2 on the left and 2 on the right. However you have 3 on the left and 3 on the right.
I will ask for revision.
1 page rough perspective ( plot , ghost all lines)
1 page rotated boxes

Thank you so much:) I'll do the revision and I'll avoid the mistakes as much as I can again thank you for your feedback:)

Sorry it took this late, I was sick for few days,
I was able do only few lines Parallel to the horizon and few vertical, should I redo something please tell it would mean a lot to me.

You don't have to redo them, it seems you have grasped the main points of the lesson. Now you should work on what you need to improve on when using these exercises as a warmup.

Thank you very much:)

Or should I move one to the challenge?

Linework looks good on the rough perspective. On rough perspective the horizontal lines are not parallel to the horizon. They boxes look distorted. You should work on that. You should plot your lines, using the horizon as a reference. Rotated boxes look good, keep working on them. I will mark this lesson complete. You must work on all this when using these exercises as a warmup. https://drawabox.com/lesson/0/3/warmups Good luck :)

How to Draw by Scott Robertson
When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
