Finally completed the 250 boxes and would love some feedback.

I accidentally skipped 133, but did an extra box, then also saw that i did 37 twice so its all good. Total 251 boxes

You have improved a lot in drawing your boxes, if we compare your first 10 boxes to your last ten boxes. Remember that even if you have completed your 250 box challenge, do not stop drawing boxes once in a week to further improve your skills.

Keep up the good work dude!!!!!

Hello! I'm no expert but I wanted to add something I think would help you. I'd suggest varying the shape and angle of the boxes that you draw to challenge yourself further. I'd especially suggest rotating the boxes to a more extreme angle and drawing them like that. Most of the boxes you drew look pretty similar (looking down on a cube-like box). Hope that helps. Congrats on finishing the challenge :)

hey Frog! Thank you for this feedback!

I definitely felt that i was doing similar POV's of the boxes, although since i rotated the page a lot it felt as though i was drawing from different angles as i didn't always start with the page at the same angle, am i approaching that incorrectly?

I definitely will try and vary the angle of the lines themselves too, much appreciated :)

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
