Hi!

So 250 box challenge complete. Not sure what I've learnt lol other than maybe how to draw straight lines.

So I did the boxes free hand, but the lines converging at the vanishing points with a ruler. I used different coloured pencils for the converging lines which looking back, just using one colour would've worked better.

Other than this I had a lot of fun!

Have you felt a difference when drawing while doing/after completing the challenge? I like the colors you used!

Review the reminders listed here: https://drawabox.com/lesson/250boxes/1/reminders - you're running afoul of the first two points.

Ultimately that's a choice for you to make - but it does explain why you feel you did not learn much from the exercise. What I can say is that when students on the official critique track end up in this situation, a full redo is what we generally assign.

Thank you, I will try again.

Also a big thank you for creating the course itself! It's been a wonderful experience so far and I'm looking forward to being able to create my own comic one day.
