I really like the drawing of the dragon.

I like the dragon picture a lot, but I think you need to work on drawing your humans a bit more. =]

Thanks :] I'll have to see what I can do about that. But could some one give me advice on what I'm doing wrong with my humans?

That sucks. I can't get my printer to work. And it's the only color one in the house. But, at least my scanner works biggrin

I can't say anything about the dragon, since all mine looks like fat lizards, but I'll try to help on the human.

I like that face. Heavens know I've tried to pull that mouth off and stick it to one of my characters, but so far I'm not doing good with it.
The shoulders on the other hand looks like they're kinda plugged onto the body, if you excuse. It's a bit hard to explain, but it's a but of a puzzle with overlapping muscles that makes it more 3D looking. The key to it all seems to lie in the armpit, so try looking in a mirror or something to check this up. There should be a diagonal line between the body and the right arm in that pose, and behind that line you'd hint the armpit.

Sorry if all of this was complicated (it sure was for me @-@) but I couldn't find any good reference pic to show what I meant.

Hope I could be of some help, keep drawing! ^^
