Congratulations, this is a beast!

So I saw on the first 50, the lines and hatching were clean, and you had a good variation of convergence and box shape. You had some struggles with diverging lines, and some convergences pointing the wrong way. A few were missing the third set of lines.

However, by the middle 100, your convergences were improving, and you were drawing them pointing the correct direction. By the last 50, the were looking really solid!

Next Steps:

On to lesson 2! Also, if you haven't joined the discord yet, they have a critique exchange where you can critique 5 submissions, then have your submission added to a spreadsheet to get critiqued faster! (Details are in the pinned post.) Plus, you can get feedback along the way in the channels dedicated to each lesson.

Ellipse Master Template

Ellipse Master Template

This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.

I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.

No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
