Your lines look confident and accurrate, no wobbling, arching or fraying on both ends. One small thing, you haven't done any curves in the superimposed lines exercise.
Your ellipses are drawn confidently and drawn through. You have a tiny bit of overlapping here and there on the ellipse tables. On the funnels the minor axis seems a little bit off on the top right funnel.
Your boxes are drawn through where they need to. Overall I don't see any mistakes on the boxes section
(I wrote this critique based on Elodin's guide for Lesson 1)
Next Steps:
I think you can move on to Lesson 2

Hello, thank you for taking the time to write this critique. You are correct about one of my funnels, I hadn't measured when I was creating the guidelines and my line was not centered between the curves. Again, thank you for the critique

Proko's Drawing Basics
Drawabox isn't the be-all, end-all of drawing fundamental education. Our approach prioritizes certain concepts over others, and while we believe it do so for good reasons, ultimately it doesn't appeal to everyone. If Drawabox simply doesn't work for you, give Proko's Drawing Basics course a try - at the very least, you'll probably find it to be a hell of a lot more fun.
Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.
Consider the following:
- If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
- Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
- Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
- Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook
Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
