New drawing of mine. The top is of a charecter of my own that I'm designing (messed up a bit by the scanner) and the bottom was for an art trade.

Now, that top one...
1. Thumb is too long or the fingers are too small (I think its the fingers.)
2. The face is too monotone, it looks a bit artificial
3. The trashcan and soda look too fake, as if their only half there. I mean, it's good, because it brings your attention to the character, in theory, but here, its more or a distraction. Make a little more of a cast shadow on there and vary the tones more.
4. THe biggest thing i see here, is a reluctance to use black or white. Some things are really dark, and others are really light. Use that to make your picture stand out more.
5.the smudges on the piece make it look...kind of unprofessional. Get rid of them. I know it happens a lot, (the black marks on the bottom of my fingers are a testament to it) but in a final piece they really need to not be there. If your worried about damaging the picture itself, do it on Photoshop or something of that sort.
I love that hair though, and the amount of detail in those skates is astounding.

Thanks K33n, your definatly one of the better reviewers here.
1. I'd say the fingers are too short; since I rpefer larger hands. This problem most likely occured because I wanted too long into the composition to bring the hands from "mitten" state into fingers.
2. I see what you mean; I think some more shading around the edges to help round it out would help; especially around the lower half.
3. Yeah, I definatly agree. I actually added those after I had finished everything of the charecters; including the shading. She was orinally simply in a white plain. While the trashcan is in the right position to hold her weight; adding it so late was a bad idea and separates it from the drawing.
4. It's a slight reluctance; coupled with the fact I only use normal pencils, so no varying hardness. Fine Art teaches that nothing is black and the only white is the strongest highlight in the whole picture; however yes, I still need to bring my range farther out.
5. Smudges are always a big problem with any of my drawings that contain a flat white space. I am usually unable to clean it up afterwards because it creates a slight tone in the backround that I unconsciously react to while I'm shading; the bright white backround of clean makes the middling tones of the charecter even worse. So this problem is connected to number 4.
I'm glad you like that hair; tight curls ar hard to shade because they're so 3 dimensional. The stray hairs are actually remnants of the sketch phase which fit perfectly. The skates are also based loosely of my own; so that was a great help.
Thanks again K33n; my bussiness like tone doesn't belay how much you've helped me here.

Wow, I got another reviewer, and I thought it had already died.
Thank you, and thanks for the compliments. Yes the skates are really big; compound effect of my current stylistic leaning towards big hands and feet and the fact that skates are pretty big normaly (especially aggressive). Thanks again.
