Congratulations! Finishing this challenge is no easy feat.

You seem to have gotten a really strong grasp on perspective, and while some of your boxes, even nearing the end, do have clear divergences, a lot of them are also really well done. In addition, your linework throughout is very confident.

One way to improve your convergences is to analyze the angles the lines make as they converge towards the vanishing point, as explained in this diagram: https://i.imgur.com/8PqQLE0.png. Doing so can be very helpful in preventing divergences, and in having all the lines in your boxes converge more consistently.

Next Steps:

I didn't really have much to say. I believe this was really well done! Your next step should be lesson 2

Thanks for the feedback!

I still find it very hard to do it all, linework, angles convergence, etc, so it's surprising you saying that. Nonetheless, I'll keep your advices in mind through the next lessons. Thank you again

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
