Lines and ellipses look p good in general, though superimposed have a bit of wobble, as well as your ellipses.
In these exercises, you should always prioritize confidence over accuracy.
A wobbly line will always be worse than a confident line, no matter how off the confident line is.
If you take a look over the ghosted lines notes you'll see the levels of lines:
Level 1: Line is smooth and consistent without any visible wobbling, but doesn't quite pass through A or B, due to not following the right trajectory. It's a straight shot, but misses the mark a bit. Level 2: Line is straight, smooth and consistent without any wobbling and maintains the correct trajectory. It does however either fall short or overshoot one or both points. Level 3: Line is straight, smooth, consistent without any wobbling. It also starts right at one point and ends exactly at the other.
As you can see, wobbly lines aren't mentioned, which means that they would be worse than level 1.
As I mentioned, same in your ellipses. Prioritize confidence over accuracy to make them as smooth and confident as you can.
P good on boxes too. Be sure to take your time with them though. Their lines have a bit of wobble, in opposition to your individual ghosted lines. Remember you should approach them exactly the same.
Don't repeat lines neither, no matter how off a line is, don't repeat it, keep going as if it was correct.
Organic boxes looks p good outside of that, good job!
Next Steps:
Great job on finishing lesson 1! Keep up the good work and good luck in the box challenge
Thank you!
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).
