I really like it, you can draw people way better than I can, and the shading looks great in my opinion!

The proportions are a bit weird but I can barely draw a stick figure. Very cool!

theyre really nice mel! the only thing i would say that if youre shading, you should use warm shadows + cool highlights/cool shadows + warm highlights rather than just making the colour lighter/darker.

your anatomy, posing and shading technique(i can only do block shading lmao) are really cool though!! keep up the good work ^_^

I've been trying to switch to other colors for shading (like blue would get a more purple shading but a lighter blue highlight) but it's something I've been trying to work on but haven't been TOO successful on haha
Palmpoa Commander wrote::darkno:

most of the faces look like thy are ascribing to preset symbols. they dont adapt to the shape or proportions thy should. Not only are the proportions off, this also has a side affect of making it impossible to distinguish between faces. If I were to remove all other defining characteristics, the characters would only be differentiated by only the shape of their heads, which seems to be very inconsistent in each drawing, yet always follow the same pattern
So what do you suggest I try? Or are you just going to keep repeating yourself by saying they look to similar? And what do you mean in the last part? How is it inconsistent but still consistent?

That makes much more sense. I'll try that out to see if it helps.

In other news I had a drawing done but lost all progress because my computer restarted without my permission :)

I keep forgetting to be online weh

oh well I tried practicing coloring hair in a different style than I usually do (please don't ask about posing if I practice shading or something I don't usually pose unless it's pose practice or me trying to make a nice picture)
