Hi, first of all: congratulations on finishing this challenge! You've done great!
There are multiple ways of going about drawing boxes, the y-method is just the one that gets used and explained in this course.
Do keep in mind that the angle between each line of the 'y' should be greater than 90 degrees, nr 25 is a great example of how not to do it. Beyond that I see that you're definitely experimenting with the lengths of each dimension, as well as the angle between each dimension (which, as long as it's > 90 degrees, is good), noice!
In the beginning your lines were curving quite often, which is understandable. I see a lot of improvement as the challenge goes on. Around the 170 mark, I already saw barely any curves so nice job. Every once in a while a curving line still happens (e.g. 180 bottom 'horizontal' line), but consider this challenge a way to improve your marksmanship. Your lines were never going to be absolutely perfect after drawing 250 boxes, but there is a great deal of improvement, and that's what counts.
Convergences: their accuracy steadily increase, meaning you've improved your spatial reasoning as the challenge went on. It's perfectly fine to create a perfect box every single time after this challenge, what matters is that you've gotten considerably better, and that you hung in there.
It was advised to stick to 5-6 boxes per page, you've done 8 lots of times. This isn't the worst thing in the world, but if you were to do this challenge again in the future (e.g. you feel like your marksman skills are getting rusty) I'd try to really stick to the 5-6 recommendation. It gives you more space per box =]
All in all: good job, you're ready for lesson 2!
Next Steps:
Pick 2-3 exercises for warmups before each drawing session. Considering the next lesson's nature, I'd pay special attention to doing superimposed curved lines.
Continue on toward lesson 2, good luck!
