So these are two recent linearts that I am quite proud of, although I would apreciate some critiqueing.

First, the fanart:

User Image

Yes, it's a hickified Chichiri. Why? Because I live in a town with cowboys, I'm afraid. That and the image was just... well, funny. xd

Second, the original:

User Image

This is a muse that I drew for an english project. I know the coloring of the hair and eyes is bad and it was a mistake that I wish I could fix. Unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to ratify.

Thank you for your imput!

OMFG you can draw hands!!! I can't draw hands for my life...it looks great, i'm not that advanced so i can't critique your stuff, but nothing looks off from what i can see...except for some reason the hair on the left....of the muse i mean...is it just me or is it a bit high? idk...well good work!!!

Your line variations are awesome. @_@ Especially on the Chichiri fanart. I really like the pose on that artwork.

As for the muse, I'm impressed by the detail you placed on the wings. I do find that however, that the way the muse's hair has detailed strands on some parts and not on others somewhat distracts me. I'm not sure why, but I think consistency on hair strands might look better. (No need to modify your actual work though. Maybe photoshop on it to see how it looks?)

I also find something a bit off with the way the bottom part of the sleeve falls. Ack...don't know how to explain that. (Sorry.) In general, I like the way the folds flow through the work are fluid. You have a lot of nice fluidity in your lineart.

Thank you both very much for your critiques!

-XxrandomdumbnessxX, the hair may be a bit high. ^^; As for the hands... Well, I hate to sound like everyone else, but practice practice practice! (And honestly, these are two of my better things... usually my hands end up looking a little odd.)

- GB girl, thank you very much. I'm glad the lines work. ^_^ Yeah, the muse's hair kinda bugs me a bit too, but when I try to do detailed hair it usually ends up looking terrible. ^^; I'll do what you suggested and try photoshoping in some more details.
