I don't know why but some pics are upside down, also they were out of order but then I editet it so it can be more organized :)
In a way, your boxes to me seem like they have improved in terms of how the lines converge to their vanishing points. I would recommend not getting so much into the habit of drawing perfectly parallel lines a lot of times, as you want to ensure that your boxes have some degree of foreshortening, even if its shallow. That way you get to practice correcting your accuracy of lines converging instead of avoiding it. But good job for finishing the challenge!
Next Steps:
Proceed with lesson 2.
Thank you for your review, I'll practice your tips in my warmups :)
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
