Well, I just got accepted into this guild and didn't know how to start. I thought maybe I'll just post some art.

Note: All drawings are handrawn, no photoshop or paint shop for me. crying
Also they are inked and the colors might be funny because of the scanner.

This one took more time then I thought it would. But it came out ok.

A quick sketch. Inked.

Inked and then colored. I have a bad habbit when I draw. I think you can notice...

Just a self portrait. It doesn't look exactly like me since it is in manga format.

Just a random doodle. I was bored lol

I was just bored and didn't know what to draw. I can't draw guys that well so I was like "Well I'm going to have to draw them sooner or later so why not now?" No ink since I was just doodling.

There's going to be a singing contest at my school called "The Rising Stars" and thats what inpired it. No ink since I was just doodling.



Well I hope you liked my drawings. An constructive critisizum/comments is wlecomed.

Aw! Your style is so adorable!

Maybe you should try colours that are more... BAM! That pop. I don't know though, it might just be that they are scans, so the colouring seems a pale?

Your eyes are super cute. :3

Thanks. I normally hate drawing chibis manly because I can't draw them but sometimes by accident it turns out chibi.

I have a 50 color pencil set at home but most of the colors are wierd. I asked my mom to get me a 75 color pencils set but she said no.

Awwwww~~~~~!

Your inking is pretty good. x3 It's very clean for the most part, and smooth too.

ALSO~ You draw cute.

Like me.

You're cool. 8D

** shot'd **

ANYWAY~~~~~~

I think that there is a couple of things in your inking I want to help you with, since I do work with ink more than anything else. x3

Try using line weight. x3 vary the line thickness! It'll add to the depth of the picture, and~ It'll help fix mistakes too. ** shifty eyes ** IMO, I think thick lines for traditional inking is better for your kind of style. x3

Also, in your style I think your should try and make your long hair ' chunkier '. As in, try not to make it into little strands. Try something like what you did in your second picture, but with long hair. =3

It'll be easier to ink, and it'll look good with something cute. <3

Anyway, keep practicing, and show us some more art!

I don't really understand what is line wieght sweatdrop and the main problem si that I only have a few inking pens and most of them bleed when I draw so I stick to the same inking pen.

My original drawings had chunky hair.

"They look like they are wearing wigs, it hads to be layered" my friend once said so I switched.

I usually draw short hair since I used to draw long hair all the time...

I'll try to upload some more! ^^

Okay!

But if you want examples, I'll gladly show you. x3

** Through PM, of course. **

AND~

A tutorial in our guild might be able to help you~

Also, there's a link to Celesse's tutorial in there too. I recommend that one, because I used it when I first started out too~!

I wonder if that's what my drawings lack. This "line weight" thing. I knew of it's exsistence but I really didn't think it was that big a deal.

Anyway. You have a good style going but you need to develop your eye for the human anatomy.
