Third observation is spot on! It was a bit rushed. I shouldn't have done that. I'll keep it in mind for ongoing lesson 2 exercises.

Thank you so much for the help and insight!

Here's my attempt: https://imgur.com/a/14M2E

  1. Is it necessary to extend the lines of every single box? I did not, since the mistakes started becoming obvious after initial attempts.

  2. While I could recognize the divergence of lines after I drew them (i.e., after completion of a page, when I went back to review them), I couldn't avoid them while drawing the boxes. More conscious drawing of lines would help, maybe?

  3. By around 180 - 190 boxes, I could not only sense intuitively how the box would look, approximately, but could imagine a box and draw it (with a fair margin of error). Earlier to that, I'd draw a box (following the rules of construction) and then say "ah! so that's how it looks" :-)

Kindly give your comments. Thanks! :-)
