Thanks a lot for the quick and thorough feedback.

One interesting observation I had while tackling the rotated boxes: I started this one a couple times, and noticed that my most successful attempt (the one I posted) was when I was fresh and able to really concentrate and focus. The other attempts where I started to go fast and sloppy went way worse. To me this speaks to getting some balance between quality and quantity, and pacing out progress through the exercises.

Re the 250 box challenge - I appreciate the encouragement. I'll do at least 50, but will maybe push it further. I did a page yesterday, and was surprised to find the practice already influencing my for-fun sketches in a good way. I've been wondering why folks like you and Marshall Vandruff always evangelize drawing cubes/boxes and now I will find out :)
