Looks like a nice start from what I can see. Your photo is a bit fuzzy. I like that you separated the values on the edge of the page.

Asked for help
My Studies - Alphonse Mucha is one of my all time favorite artists. Rembert Montald's sketchbooks / instagram feed are super inspirational. Always love spending time with their work.
these are all amazing, I love the ballpoint pen one, and the pilot one, these have a very distinct design and style, also these things are what make a piece intriguing! keep up the good work
Draw it good

Wow good idea! If you really are invested in this, go to fivver and pay like 10ish dollars for a concept sketch of the characters 😁best of hopes
hey everybody, I've set on a journey to create my own manga, and I need advice from everybody from every platform, so I'm 1/3 away from drawing every character in the manga, I don't have a name for my manga, and I need to have a good plot
characters(so far);
Akira Kibo
Marvin Ichikawa
Emma Himari
so the characters are in the year 2031, and almost all the populous all have powers, the 10% have a form of "chakra" from Naruto, but it's different.
so does anybody have concept designs for the characters setting? if so, send it to me at s27mlegassie@students.gwusd.org or on proko.com,
I also need a character that's half Arabian Japanese that has a power called "genie" genie grants 5-8 wishes a day, the user can wish for whatever they want (if awakened, user can have infinite wishes) , if they past their limit, they can be paralyzed,
the character needs to have no hijab, representing freedom.
let me know if anyone has something in ming

Hey michael legassie,
These are cool ideas, and in order to get them across, you must use gesture, anatomy and poses. Think about how the pose can give attitude to your characters. Character design is all about story, and the costume, pose and facial expression tells the story of who the character is.
I did a sketch to show you the process of starting with gesture, then anatomy, then costume and details. I hope this helps :)
thank you so much, i've been wanting someone to notice my work for the last 11 years, I'm currently 14, but thank you, I can't say it in words, I've had people not care about my work, but I couldn't stand out, I wanted to be a special person, so thank you!

Hey @Jaren, the foundation looks good, but I recommend "cross hatching", cross hatching is a good starter with pen and ink, you can also do a combination of pen and watercolor/wash. these both can have great potential.
I've made a character design from an AI prompt, and originally it was a shapeshifter, now it's a navajo skinWalker, Hope anyone has tips!

Another from the same lesson. Tried to clean my lines up a little i am definitely a messy artist and Stan’s drawings are so clean they’re amazing. But would love feedback
good job, the back looks amazing, looks like that studying paid off, didn't it?
I've been really happy with a 5 point perspective, I'm able to draw things I wouldn't normally draw, but is there anything I can Improve on?
