Does anyone have tips for getting accurate boxes on the organic perspective exercise?

Like about angle relationships or something, my boxes are so inconsistent of different shapes (rectangles) and not diverse in the angles theyre presented at. Im most of the way through the exercise and want to at least have picked up how to draw a box in 3D space before I finish section 1.

After Lesson 1, students get into the box challenge - it wouldn't make much sense for us to expect them to be able to comfortably rotate a box freely in 3D space before having them throw themselves at it 250 times. So don't worry - you are by no means expected to be able to do the organic perspective (or rotated boxes) exercises well right now. It's merely planting a seed, which will then be explored in the box challenge.

Thanks for the reply. I finished out the lesson and started the 250 box challenge, and Im figuring it out a lot more already!
