The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

Some things are a bit unproportional, but overall it\'s kinda good. :D

The outfit could be more detailed, the face human :P and one leg healthy.

Good first effort. :))

Let me make a point here.
My art would be much worse if I didn\'t use shapes to define the figure of my drawings beforehand.
This improves proportions indescribably.

Your stuffs quite nice, and your skills will no doubt get even better given practice.

its also good to hear you are using construction shapes to do your figures. As I\'m sure youv\'e noticed they greatly improve proportioning. Dont forget however that more than shape positioning is the overall movement of the pose your character is in, one way to help express that might be to start with a thought of what your character is doing then drawing just the head shape and the backbone first to set the flow of the picture, not forgetting to  visualise all this  3 dimensionaly so that the  shapes and the overall pictures have depth then simply fill out the image

anyhow thats my shpeil, I hope it helps or at least enterains :)

Gods of spelling, I stand AGAINST YOU!

(Cool! I got a Kintall post! :)) )

That\'s true, I don\'t draw action poses very often.
As for that picture there, I went and browsed about twenty or so sites on drawing in the anime style beforehand. :P

once again , lovely work
and if yuo are interested in learning anime style drawing techniques then I\'ve heard that the \"how to draw manga\" book series is utterly awesome, I personaly have some of the later books in the series and they are really really helpfull, and translated really spectacularly badly (Quote: \"Some buildings and vehicles can be very promiscuous\") but still good, your local book store, comic shop or art supplies store could probably get them in for you,

yeah thats my big ol recomendation

as for the rogue pic its very lively, youve remembered to keep line of sight in play given the situation and the faces are  very \"alive\"  and I can really see your using 3d space, just  dont forget that prportions are just as important

oh and one more lil thing, draw hands as much as you can and allways try to draw boobs well, they are some of the hardes things to draw given the flexibility of their shapes and variations  and hands especialy as they hold so much expression if you use them well ( I still dont:P)

anywho thats my lil thing hope I\'m helping not just blarging :)

Gods of spelling, I stand AGAINST YOU!

Yeah, I saw the books, and a friend of mine has one. They can be very helpfull, and drawing it quite easy if you see it like that :P

Nice drawing again :D
