Line section is pretty good, but in ghosting lines exercise some lines arch at the beginning and the end. When it happends, try to draw a line rotated in opposite direction.
Your elipses are great, they are smooth and drawn confidently. I only wonder why you made another planes for elipses because you could use ones from ghosted planes exercise.
On rotated boxes you should fill corners with boxes.
You’ve done good job and I wish you lack on 250 boxes challenge!

In the ghosting lines exercise, I think I was focusing to much on having my line passing by the second dot, hence the arches.
Thanks for your critique.

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.
