I actually like it, that's pretty good in general...
Lines are pretty straight (maybe a couple are a little arching?) and the ellipses are quite good.
The only fault I can find is in the rotating boxes... I think that the boxes in the for perpendicular directions have their bases a little too long and a too drastic narrowing...
In fact the adjacent ones have maybe not enough space...
But it's generally good and I can see you got the idea... The hatching would have helped to make more easy to distinguish the boxes...
Next Steps:
I would not force you to re-do the exercise, unless you have the patience and the will, just to see if it can "turn up" better.
Said that you can move on to the box challenge...

Thank you.
Yes, I also noticed that my lines arch, esp with long lines...
I will do more practise with these.
I don't mind redoing them since I found a pleasant a way to help me redo the excercises by dividing the session between one or two excercises of drawabox alongside gesture/figure practise :)

I can see that many of your lines are confident. This is great. I would recommend to look at a completed version of the rotated boxes as you do this exercise. Always use a reference. Please make sure to take the time to align your pen tip to the starting point when you are doing your ghosted lines and superimposed lines. It appears you did not take the time to do this early in the exercises, but you corrected your mistake near the end. I am assuming you used your ghosted planes pages for the ellipses in planes section. Please try to take advantage of your page space when you do the Ellipses in funnels exercise. Every exercise you should try to take advantage of your page space. This is so we can give meaningful feedback. Overall you did a good job! Your lines are beautiful and super confident. I am going to Agree with Christ that you should move onto the 250 box challenge.

No problem! Glad I could help.

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
