Excited to be on this journey with you! In the beginning, I was focused on getting the lines to converge to a VP. Later I started trying to imagine the planes and rotating the page to verify if things diverged, which seems to have helped a bit. On constructive feedback side, I consistently made the front plane diverge and the back top plane converge too quickly for a vertical box tilted down towards the viewer, so I'll have to focus on that. If you think it would be unwise to move forward without taking another stab at some boxes, please let me know!

Thank you for taking a look at my work!

Good use of hatching, I don't see any mistakes with the converging lines that you yourself didn't catch, and there is clear improvement in line quality and box shape from start to finish comparing the first 50 to the last 50, good work I would say this is completed.

Agreed, I'd simply suggest that you don't go over your original lines with the ruler while checking their convergences, as this makes it harder to evaluate line quality. Good Luck with lesson 3!

Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.

Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
