3nodding Oh Hai! 3nodding

Well, this was my first attemp at manga ever.

Then there's my second.

Third was a practice, I didn't color it in but I still signed it. (I'm so weird)

Fourth, I came up with the eyes myself, I don't use um much anymore though, because they're to hard to make each one the same size.

I think getting a photobucket account would greatly help you, because you can re-size your images way easier.

yeah, I was thinking of that, but what do you think of my art? (Don't really count the first one cuz it sucks sweatdrop )

I agree with photobucket, the image I want to red line is too big for my clip board? Dx
So!
I think your art has gotten a better, and is pretty good, but you need to remember proportions. A lot of their mouths reach awkward angles, and, in the fourth for example the mouth is pretty low.
Try to draw referencing the body of a real-life image/pose. Also study other manga to get a better face shape :3 A lot of real-life proportions fall into manga, the eyes should be far enough apart to almost fit another in between, shoulders just pass the ears. In number five the pink girls foot is bending awkwardly at a right degree angel.
Of course if your going for a chibi-type style it works rather well.
^^; I hope that wasn't mean or anything. If you resize any of them I could make some red lines.

Thanks for the feedback! I actually didn't even notice that one girls foot was like that, thanks. I have more art, which I will try to scan ASAP. But thank you! razz

you are definitely getting better. But try doing some tutorials to help with proportions. And the dress being blown by the wind in your newer pic, looks too stiff. Just keep practicing. biggrin
