Hi there, i will be reviewing your submission.
Lines: you did pretty well on these. I wanted to point out that i can see a tendency of your straight line to curve (i believe in only one direction). Just so you can be mindful of that.
Ellipses: i feel the second page gets better so all is fine here too.
Boxes: seeing the Rough Perspective, i'm not totally sure you understood the one point perspective. If that's the case i would say you return to that and redo that exercise. Sorry, i usually am of the opinion to not fossilize, but in this case it's completely off. Try to follow the direction of your lines. Besides the vertical ones, they all need to converge to the VP.
Overall, good job!
Next Steps:
I suggest to redo the rough perspective exercise, at least one page.
Hi, Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm aware my rough perspective exercises look pretty bad, I redid one page here: https://imgur.com/a/jDMc4QV .
I also did one box using a ruler https://imgur.com/a/9LN5s6R because I don't understand which part I'm not getting. In my head I had gotten it theory wise but not execution wise, what I understand about one point perspective is that the vertical and horizontal lines should be "straight" going to an infinite vanishing point, when they don't come out like that is not the intention, and those other 4 lines should go to the vanishing point that is on the page... right?
Sorry for the late reply, i was focusing on my lesson and boxes. So from what you wrote i can totally say that you know how the one point perspective works.
An advice i can give is to put points before doing the lines, because your horizontal lines are not parallel and the vertical ones are not perpendicular to the horizontal ones. This takes away the illusion of 3d and makes it look like you didn't understand the perspective.
Also make sure you turn the paper to a position that feels good to do parallel lines, ghost the line you made already and then make the parallel one.
Putting points helped me a lot in the 250 boxes, hope it can help you too. Don't give up and keep going! You will get acquainted with the perspective.
I'm marking these as complete.
Good luck!

250 Boxes challenge
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
