Thank you for the response! I agree with what you say about difficulties with arcing, I noticed I was having a lot of trouble ghosting lines accurately - they all tend to curve. I could see that this was affecting my abilities to draw the boxes as well. I am going to keep working at exercises to correct this.

I will certainly move on to more boxes next, I was having a lot of trouble with rotating the boxes to different perspectives. The notes on perspective consistency are also very helpful, thank you for that!

Hello there! Very late to the party. I've been meaning to teach myself to draw for a long time and finding this sub has been very motivating. It's taken me a couple of days but here is my lesson 1. I am having a lot of trouble drawing straight lines using the ghosting technique you described, and overall I feel my linework is very shaky. But I do feel good to actually be drawing!
