Hello Bheemnye! Overall you've done a good attempt but there are a few issues I want to comment on, let's go through the exercises section by section!:
Starting with your lines overall you're doing a good job at committing to your lines regardless of if they're going to miss or not miss, which is great! We always want to focus on drawing a confident straight line first. A few things though:
-From time to time I can see wobble in your lines, try to loosen up a little bit more and to ghost more so they become fully confident consistently.
-Sometimes your lines fray on 2 ends. Whenever you are starting a line , you should carefully place your pen on the start of each line so only a maximum of 1 end can fray.
-Your dots are too big, try to make them smaller so it's easier to assess the results of the ghosting exercise.
-On your ghosted planes you aren't drawing starting and ending dots before drawing every line. Make sure you always do it as it's super important for the ghosting method.
Moving onto your ellipses you're also overall doing a good job on confidence, both on big and smaller ellipses which is great! The main thing on the table of ellipses is the accuracy part. You are having trouble keepign the ellipses touching the top and bottom lines and touching the ellipses at their sides, sometimes they overlap a bit or get out of bounds. Your first priority is confidence of course, but make sure you keep reminding yourself of the goals of each ellipse so your accuracy keeps improving.
On the ghosted planes, I think the ellipses are starting to get a bit wobbly at times. You might be thinking that the centre of the ellipses is the same as the centre of the planes or that you should modify the elliptical shape of the ellipse so it touches the contact points, but this is not the case. Ellipses have to be symmetrical and have the same form regardless of where they are, so the only things you can change is how wide the ellipse is and which position it is in.
Lastly on your funnels sometimes you aren't aligning the ellipses to the minor axis. Make sure you always aim for the ellipses to be cut symmetrically by the middle line even if that means you need to ignore the initial curves.
Finally in your boxes a few things:
-Overall you're doing a good job planning your lines and not repeating them, but they are getting a little bit wobblier. Make sure you always prioritize confidence on lines even when you're drawing them in the boxes section!
-On the rough perspective you aren't following the format explained on the website of doing 3 frames. Make sure you pay attention to the instructions you don't miss things like these.
In the exercise itself you're doing a mainly good job with the perspective guesses of the depth lines, but you seem to have trouble at times keeping height lines perpendicular to the horizon line, and width lines parallel to it. I know it's hard, but make sure you always are aiming for it. You can check if the starting and ending dots are correct or not, and if you find that they aren't you can change them. You can put down as many dots as you want as long as it's before drawing the actual line, so give it a shot!
-On rotated boxes you've done a good attempt on the boxes you've drawn apart from the line issues I mentioned earlier, but you haven't finished the exercise (some boxes are missing, so I want you to finish it before finishing the lesson).
-Lastly on organic perspective you're doing some good attempts at freehanding the boxes. They do have some perspective issues but that's not a problem as you'll work on them on the box challenge. Main thing is that you aren't planning your lines by drawing starting and ending dots before drawing them, so make sure you always do that to use the ghosting method properly.
Overall you've done a good attempt like I said, but before moving on I want you to finish the rotated boxes that isn't finished, and that you draw one more page of rough perspective to show that you can commit to your lines and draw them confidently in boxes as well. Good luck and keep up the good work, you're almost there!
Next Steps:
-Complete the previous rotated boxes exercise
-Do 1 more page of rough perspective
