Hello, I'll be critiquing your work, Good work on completing lesson 1.
Lines
Your ghosted lines are looking pretty good, however I noticed that your lines are arching, I found that arching them in the opposite direction has helped me make straighter lines. Aside from that, I noticed a bit of wobbliness too, but it looks like you're using your shoulder when you make marks, so I don't see it as too much of a problem, as that will improve over time.
Your superimposed lines are good as well, I see there was a case where you noticed when there was fraying on both ends of the line, aside from the arching in the lines, it seems you understand what is required for the exercise, and that you are using your shoulder when you make marks, good work.
Ellipses
Good work on your ellipses in planes, they appear to be drawn confidently and drawn through multiple times. There were only a few cases where they escaped the bounds of the plane, but you don't need to worry about accuracy too much as it will improve over time.
Your funnels are great too, there were only a few cases where your ellipses weren't aligned with the minor axis, however it seems that you understand what needs to be done in this exercise, good work.
Boxes
In your rough perspective work I noticed some more wobbly lines, do remember to use your shoulder when making marks.
I noticed that your boxes at the ends of your rotated boxes exercise weren't actually rotating away, and were along the same rotation as the boxes directly next to them.

Your organic perspective work looks good as well, I noticed less wobbliness and less arching in your lines here, good work.
Again, good work on completing lesson 1, and good luck on the 250 box challenge.

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.
