Here we go! - http://imgur.com/a/yqOcn

I feel like I struggle with having a confident line when the lines are short/small, suppose its because its so short I feel I cant go too fast and go «over» and instead end up going to slow and becoming woobly. Though I feel I became aware of this towards the end and it became a little more confident.

I struggled with some of the self-critique I see, but although the red lines may not always reflect it I think I saw what was wrong with a lot of them, but I was just hard to reorganize the whole box.

Hope there is any improvement at all though! What's the next step?

Thanks for the quick reply! So should I submit the "correction" excercise of the rough perspectives together with the 250 boxes challenge? And yeah, a couple of days here was more like a week so much more then 2 hours !

I try to be patience and find that towards the ends of 1 hour sessions with such repeating exercises I tend to lose focuse, so then I'd rather come back later with sharp focus then continue and be sloppy almost on purpose in order to finish.

Hey! I just become a patreon so I would be able to partake in this critique section, so I hope it works out with you getting the correct username and all. Anyways - I just completed lesson 1 which I spent a couple of days on and tried to draw approx 1 hour per day. I really struggle with confidence in that I'll ever become good, but I hope I'll stick to it!

I went through each section, but the first try at the rotating box exercise didn't go very well so I attempted it a second time as the last drawing. I think it went better, but I fudged up some of the shading, it become too many lines. Do you think I should work more on any of the aspects here?
