i see you're having a hard time making perfect ellipses for the wheels. but, perfect isn't the point here. the minor axis is somewhere off of the ellipses but I can see you have a grasp of the perspective so it does looks like a wheel.
im convinced it looks like a wheel.
you're doing fine and it took some time to make almost perfect ellipses for the wheels so take your time. and also you'll be drawing smaller wheels on the vehicle lessons so I guess you'll do fine there. keep on working hard and goodluck

thank you for your reply

It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Staedtler Pigment Liners
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).
