Hi Yoyastrejos,

I've checked your submission, good kob on completing the challenge!

First, I see that you struggle most of the time with the back corner, here is a different way on constructing your boxes for your warmups that will help you improve that problem: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725744395718230146/725745452691095643/How_draw_a_box.png

Take a look at it, it really help me, and pass it to everyone you think it will need it!

I like the way you are hatching the front faces of your boxes, also regarding linewheight, remember it has to be subtle, try not to apply to much pressure at the start of every line. However, this is a really little problem, just to take into account.

Seeing your submission, I can clearly tell that you got the point of the challenge, the improvement in the confidence and size of the boxes throuhg out the challenge it's really noticeable. Good job!

Remember to keep doing warm ups from other lessons and this challenge, they will really help you improve!

I'm gonna mark this as complete, go on to the lesson 2!

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
