Hello, I'm r0m1 and I'm beginner, but I will try to make a critic :) First, congratulation for finishing this assignement!
Superimposed Lines
You are executing your mark confidently, and maintain a confident, consistent trajectory for your strokes. You place your pen where the mark should start. The lines do not wobble, and there are no fraying at the begining of the lines. It seems correct to me.
Ghosted lines
It also seems correct to me: you are drawing the lines without hesitation. They do not wobble nor arc or bow, and you hit the end almost every time.
Ghosted planes & Ellipses in planes
The lines are still drawn confidently, and precisely so the planes are correct.
You draw through your ellipses two or three times, but they do not all touch the four edges of your planes: do not forget to follow all the instructions! That said, they all are evenly shaped.
Tables of ellispes
Same remarks that for the Ellipses in planes: they do not fit snugly against the border.
But you definitively draw through your ellipses 2 full times, and they are evenly shaped.
Funnels
Everythings ok : you have drawn through your ellipses at least twice, they are touching the edges of the funnel and they are aligned to the central minor axis line.
Plotted perspective
You used a ruler, as stated in the instructions. The verticals are perpendicular to the horizon. All the edges plot back to the vanishing points. Well done!
Rough perspective
You are working with a single vanishing point, in the middle of the frame and both the front and back of the frames are rectangular (there are some imprecision in the stroke but I don't think you misunderstood the exercise). Do not forget to use the ghosting method to draw the line confidently, some of them wobble a bit!
Rotated boxes
You followed the instructions and the core steps of the exercice: this is referring to laying out the vertical and horizontal axes, as well as adding the squares at the end of each axis (this helps remind the 180 degree rotations). The gap between the boxes are consistent.
You used different vanishing points for all boxes. You draw through your boxes and all the boxes are drawn. Nice!
Organic perspective
You used the ghosting method to draw your boxes and most of the the boxes sets of parallel edges do not diverge as they move farther away from the viewer. You did not leaned into particularly dramatic foreshortening.
From my beginner point of view, you did a pretty good job :) There are only a couple of details that could be improved, so you can be proud of yourself for completing this!
Next Steps:
250 boxes challenge.
Thanks alot for the feedback. :)
A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.
In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
