Thanks! I already started on the second lesson. I found that it was very helpful during the boxes challenge that you asked us to correct our mistakes using a different colored pen after we're done. Is it alright if I use the same technique in the next lesson? Or would that just make it messy and distracting?

Here's the submission for the challenge. http://imgur.com/a/lAJmK

I certainly grew more fond of boxes. I did realise after I uploaded the photos that I didn't finish going over the corrections on the second page. I'll complete them now. Either way any critique would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot for your feedback. It is a lot easier to understand when I tackle one issue at a time. I appreciate all the work and time you put into this.

Thanks a lot for your critique. I already started working on the boxes challenge, however I'm facing some issues dealing with the proportions of the box. A lot of the times I intend on drawing a perfect cube from a specific angle and while I think that the perspective is fine and the lines are converging, the box still looks squashed. Like the size of the sides is not right. Do you have any tips on figuring out the proportions of the box? Or something that I should generally keep in mind? Is it simply due to lack of experience and I just need some time to get the hang of it?

The Rotated Boxes exercise gave me an incredibly hard time so I just pushed through it. After I did the Organic Perspective Boxes and felt more comfortable with the boxes I went back and did one more page of the Rotated Boxes.
