As the title said, I'm posting my sketches here.

Spoiler

Somehow, I made my 1st try for this character look better than my 2nd to 5th. I reuse paper so there might be text showing in the background. Sorry.


This is a draft for a fanart contest for this character I'm planning to submit. I tried to make it look somewhere mix between a boy and a girl because the character is a trap, but I ended up having the face looking like up like a boy. I'm going to redo this before I submit it.


My avatar I drew a long time ago.

[Adidaas]

It looks cute, very cuddly. I don't understand what your like emoticon thingys are supposed to mean, was the emotion you were going for the character?

You have a nice amount of detail on her clothes, its nice. There are several hindrances you should pay attention to though; her neck on several of the drawings are a little too big making it seem like shes a boy, the hair is sometimes also oddly shape and doesn't match her head. I'd recommend checking out some pictures of the human head so you fine tune it.


Anyway, good start.

[Eenkin]

The emotes are from my friend's joke comments. He was just bashing down my drawings only because I comment that he puts too much detail into his that it's hard to see what it is. It's just his way of revenge. His real comment was that it looked fine but I should try to draw it in a more natural pose.

[Nurse Joy]

Not gonna lie bro, those heads are very large in comparison to the bodies. It looks about the same size as the torso, actually. I would suggest either making the head smaller or the body larger. And I do agree with Adidaas, the hair looks rather unnatural. It makes me think of legos, to be completely honest. It nearly looks like you can pop the hair off and put it on a different head. I'm not, however, going to agree that it doesn't match the head. Hair is an odd shape, and won't always look right on a head. It depends completely on the pose. You wouldn't expect to see perfectly straight hair on a person resting their head on a flat surface, and you certainly wouldn't expect hair to look perfect being thrown back or tossed by the wind. Granted, you do make the hair seem too full, but I do think you get the gist of it. The best advice I can think of to help would be draw the complete head first. Then add the eye and center lines. Once you know where the face will go, decide on the hair. Bangs should go just over the eyes or into them, then go from there.
My other big issue is that the poses just don't seem natural. Do you have trouble drawing feet? Because they always seem to be at an odd angle for how she's standing, and I notice it's generally the same pose. maybe try to draw feet in different, odd angles to get used to them. They don't look bad-they look rather nice with your style, actually-just unnatural.
Honestly? Best advice ever? Practice. Sure, you're good now. But there is always something to strive for. Stare at people-when they aren't looking, otherwise it would be creepy-to figure out how bodies work. Take pictures of yourself at odd angles and try to imitate them on paper. You don't need an art class or fancy art supplies to become better at drawing, just a camera/computer and creativity.

Bumping because of new (blurred up) sketches.

Somehow, the people I showed this to at school compared her to Robin Hood and called her a boy .

Double post bump for update.

Triple post update
An attempt to draw myself and my old drawing style.

Spoiler

I don't know why, but I always tilt the paper when I draw.

[Zenoxy]

Tilting the paper when one draws is natural---your hand wants to capture your natural flow.

as for that last one---what is that? I am super curious.

[Eenkin]

It's just me in front of an abstract drawing. I also have no clue what that thing is. I just let the pencil lead whenever I try to draw abstract.

[Zenoxy]

Oooo, I kind of hoping for a circus tent that you are emerging out of.

I see what you mean. I was listening to Dark Woods Circus (and other songs) when drawing this so it might've been an influence.

[Zenoxy]

Interesting!


Well I do enjoy your works, I have very little criticism to offer other than the usual of Anatomy, study from real life, and pencil clean up.
but that's for later works.

A mix of new and old drawings.

It's clear that I've done a lot of erasing, right? Well, I think it's time to add little action on my drawings.

Sorry, I can't show you the first draft like the others. She's suppose to be used in somewhere else, but she got scrapped.
I don't like how my scanner made it much brighter.

Here are artworks that I posted on old VO during the virus attack.

Spoiler

Based off the PV by △○□× (is there an easier way to type his/her name) for wowaka's Unhappy Refrain. I did this at school the day after I watched the PV so there's a lot of wrong things here especially the hair.

A quick sketch of a character I drew from over a year or two ago.
