Okay here's some more stuff.
User Image
User Image
Just some hands (the foot I think turned out awesome.)
User Image
This is one of the first ones I drew in my sketchbook.
User Image
Ehh, the feet turned out weird. This isn't one of my favorites.
User Image
Again, this isn't one of my favs, and I'm terrible at feet. D=
Oh, and I am so sorry that I've completly put too many pictures up at one time. =)

Hm...The hands/feet often come out looking a bit smallish on your figures. The girls are rather, um, flat...females should have an emphasis on hips and some form of breasts (unless they are supposed to be 12 or younger), an area I also have to work on often. In the one with the dog, the light haired girl is oddly thin. A little practice with anatomy and you'll be fine.

The faces are cute, as are the over all designs of the drawings. Keep going!

Well, the reason she's oddly thin in that one picture where Dogluver4eva is leaning against me, is because she was supposed to be sort of from a side view with her head turned to look forward, but I kinda failed on that.
=( And I am really terrible at feet. I never know how to do them. On the one where the girl is listening to her ipod, I neglected to make her feet correctly and they sort of look like dots. Whenever I make feet the people always look like they're standing on tippy-toes.

Well, in my experience, if the feet and hands are about the same size, your off to a good start. And if the hands are about the size of the face (eh, chin to mid forehead) then all the better!

Very true. That reminds me, there's a picture I drew, (IDK if I posted it) of me with my hand over my mouth. It looks very akward due to the fact that my hand is teeny tiny...

Your specific hand/foot practise looks pretty good, but make sure you apply that to the rest of your art or else there isn't much purpose in practising it in the first place. That foot does look quite good, but the hands still need some work (the thumbs in specific are positioned oddly). It looks like drawing hair is probably your strongest point, and the head shapes are alright for the most part. I think the anatomy on your boy looks best out of all your pictures, though his neck looks a bit long. The cat girl in the picture below also has pretty decent proportions overall, though again the neck seems a bit long; also, her hips could be wider and her legs look awkward.
I dunno which of your pictures are newer and which are older, but I'd look at those two as your better works and try to apply that stuff to the rest of your art (while continuing to improve, of course).

Thank you!
And now that you mention it, I see my mistakes in the Cat-Girl's legs. Thumbs are always quite the challenge, and I tend to get carried away in the neck department, and make their necks overly "graceful". =D
