Well that's definitely improvement!

What I notice is that you have really wobbly lines, try downloading GIMP and using the paths tool to make smooth lines if you want. Also the anatomy um needs some work, just practice drawing these sketchy figures made out of shapes on paper for poses and anatomy - don't worry - for me there was a "click" moment when I became better at sketching, all that.

Keep up the good work!  smile

Re: Art Improvement

My best work of art, I call it, Untitled.
(Not really  tongue )

Anyway, I'm only a beginner at art.
But, this is probably the best piece I made so far:

I use GIMP, but don't use any tools except for free-select and airbrush.  tongue

Hmm - try using the brush tool, play around with the settings, and try and use quick strokes. I use the brush tool. For line weight, erase the lines a little at the ends to make some of the line thinner. That's what I did for my Darumaka pic.  smile

Distorted?  hmm

Edit: Also, I just got a GREAT idea. We could form an art collab (in which I draw the outline and you draw the background and do colors). :3

It's cute, but it's as if it was a piece of paper that was photographed from an angle. It's skewed somewhat. Maybe it's my monitor.

Also, the art collab sounds cool! But do you mean shading AND colors or just colors? Also I'm terrible at backgrounds e_e But I COULD do colors. I'm not sure - I like doing outlines too, so... But I like your idea.

To answer your questions:
1: Adobe Illustrator's pen tool does that, it's pretty weird.
2: Shading and colors, I guess.
3: Oh well, maybe we can find someone else.

Bump.

Re: Art Improvement

I feel so alone.  sad

Because I absolutely suck at digital art, which is what all of you guys here are awesome at. I'm more used to hand-drawn.

I tried using a tablet once, and it felt awkward for me.
