Having trouble coming up with something to draw? No worries - while you'll eventually learn how to start from a tiny seed of a thought and gradually nurture it into a complex concept to explore through design and illustration, it's perfectly fine not to be there just yet.

For now though, here's an idea that might interest you.

Kaiju Defence Force: Engineer Corps

We all knew it would end this way - we just didn't realize we'd put up such a good fight. Kaiju attacks, once rare and utterly horrifying, have all but become commonplace. Every aspect of our lives, from our housing, our transportation, - hell, even the food we eat - revolves around the fact that multiple times a week, our very existence is threatened by these great hulking beasts that emerge from the depths of our oceans.

Living with the constant threat of Kaiju attacks introduces a plethora of problems that must be solved in order for a society to survive, let alone thrive. Pick one, and attempt to address it in a design. Whether it is a direct defensive measure against the attacks, a means of navigating the city, or a system that helps ensure the citizens' needs are being met - everything's on the table, and the clock is ticking before the alarm sounds again.

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).
