A few notes about why I'm showing Line-art:
I naturally draw in a combination of colored pencil and regular, but I do lineart to scan in because my scanner does not scan shading or colored pencil well stare I want some critique but my ego's fragile so be gentle please smile

They look good. Can I suggest saving your stuff as .png instead of jpg? The lines would be more crisp <3

I agree with Yeata Zi about saving art as .pngs rather than .jpgs.

I wish I could see what these look like colored. There are some parts that I think could be improved, but you might work like my sister, where you fix the parts I think need improving with the way you color them. Like the guy's hand in the picture of the couple kissing. It looks a lot like the hands people draw when they trace the outline of their own hands rather than a hand resting on the back of a girl's neck.

You have a very good sense of composition. My immediate advice, work on hands and wrists, both with shape and proportion. I would recommend to do a google search and look up "counting heads" when it comes to drawing the human body. This can help you determine proportion no matter how tall or short the person is. And if you don't know how something is suppose to look, rather than make it up, either get someone to pose for you or again, do a google search and see if you can find something that closest resembles a pose for something you need, no matter what part of the human body.
