Well done!
This is almost like my approach to pencil drawing. Your attention to line placement is like mine. In pencil, you would add the element of thickness and value to the line. With an ink pen, you only have one value and one thickness. But that forces you to do other effects, like cross hatch, which you have done, and denser line placement in darker areas.
I love your freedom in your use of lines. Most drawings you see are too careful and timid. Here there is care, but there is boldness and confidence. That is what shows up here. Only time and experience can produce it.
I love to draw this way, although I use pencil rather than pen. You have a good eye and steady hand. Each line is a building block to the next. If one line is wrong, the whole drawing falls apart.
True, it is an exercise in form, since form is in the mind all the time. But the actual development of the drawing utterly depends on the correct execution of each line. Especially since it is in ink.
A worthy exercise. I would consider this more than just an exercise, but a mastery.
