Thank you for your critique Rob.

It would be most helpful going into 250 boxes challenge if you could give me a little bit of extra clarification of your remarks regarding organic perspective exercise. Is it possible to mark few of the 'good' boxes and few of the boxes with issues ? I had mixed feelings doing that particular exercises so examples of good vs bad would help.

Have a nice day!

I understand the anxiety associated with moving on and feeling like things may not be entirely clear, but I assure you that is an entirely normal aspect of how the course is designed. The TA provided you with feedback on any issues that you needed to worry about right now.

The box challenge is daunting, but you are appropriately equipped to tackle it. Try not to give too much weight to your anxieties, and focus on the advice Rob already provided - it's easy to, out of a desire to be a conscientious, come up with a lot of other things to worry about, but that only serves as a distraction.

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.
Ellipse Master Template

Ellipse Master Template

This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.

I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.

No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
