Might as well post some of these, too!

My favourite medium is watercolour, but I also love markers and coloured pencil. I'm decent at vectoring, but I've never done any other type of CG work.

First off, I'll show you how I used to draw! The left is the old piece from 2006, the right was done 3 months, or so ago. My style, I feel, has matured a great deal in a not so great amount of time. I still have improvements o make, though!



These are both redos of old work, but they're cute so I thought I'd show her off. Done in Prisma markers. These ladies, along with another one, are the stars of a calendar inmy graphic design portfolio.





An ink drawing I used for a drypoint plate. She's my fave in the series.



And a sample of my vector work.

love the soft colours of your work! on the first pic, i prefer your old style of doin hair, the highlights really work well in showing the curvature and flow of the hair. but i do prefer the sharpness of the colourin for the body and the shadin on the faces of your newer version. but thats jus my opinion.

overall great work and great style!

Thanks! The old version of the first one was watercolour and the new one is marker. I usually highlight with some whiteout on my marker work, but it didn't feel right for the project.

Thanks a lot for the reply!

hands holding the pistol look a bit uncomfortable on new version of the first one, I think it's something to do with the wrists. I absolutely love the texture work on the B&W.

You're right, her hands look very stiff! Thank you! I'm glad you like Tama, she's one of my favourite drawings.

hello!
for the watercolor , can't help because i dont use that since years
but for overall , i'll say , try to work more from human body reference to make your drawings more believable!
there are anatomy problems , anyway anatomy is the most important part(or one of the most...) and of course it's very hard to deal with it .

keep it up!

[mistresslegato]

Could you be more specific? What places do I need to work on, anatomy wise?

[sanskarans]

[mistresslegato]

Thank you, I'm flattered <3

I know I need crits, though!

sorry for late answer
i'll say the "proportions" and "volume" of the human body
(hope it's good in english)

of course keep drawing!!
