The drawing i very nice. I think if there is a thing you should practice, it should be facial anatomy. Side note the hair is very pretty.

I am struggling with asymmetry and expression in my characters. This drawing was supposed to capture the feeling of extreme happiness where she will be slightly squinting her eyes because of her smile.

Abstract Dragon

The character that’s clinging to the dragons snoot look clumsily coloured, I would like advice on making the colouring neater and more interesting. I used markers and gen pens.

Sketch 28 - Robin Hood study

Studying Barry Windsor-Smiths Robin Hood illustration.

need help

I don't do digital art that much; I mostly do traditional. But something with the line work and overall drawing feels off to me. If anyone could point me in the right direction for things I should study more, please do so. I would be very grateful.

Day 30 head practice

I sometimes just forget how to create depth in the head, or the shape looks bad. I hate drawing heads

I think the proportions are better on this version but I’m curious to hear opinions about the overall strength of the design.
