Hello! Quite excited to finally post the lesson 1 homework. I bought some fineliners online the same day I found about drawabox.com. I didn't want to wait until they arrived so I started the exercises with a ballpoint pen, the first 9 pages to be more precise.

Hello! This was a tough exercise, I actually finished it almost 2 weeks ago but I was so tired of it that it took me this long to make the album. I also apologize for the order of the pictures, I don't understand why imgur does that...

I think the most valuable lesson I learned with this challenge, aside from the technical skills, is to not overdo it. I made the first 200 boxes at a quick pace. I was taking my time with them but I was drawing too many each day (between 16-20 a day, which was several hours a day). I think this is why some boxes have terrible line quality, usually the last boxes of the day turned sloppy as I got tired/frustrated. Now I am dissatisfied with what I've done as I feel I could've done better. I'll make sure to remember this for future lessons.
