I think that will do it Idk...

"Not that good"????? It's quite the opposite, my friend.
To be concise you have surpassed my pitiful excuse for drawing skills by an estimation of 35.9 million miles!
That might be a bit of an over-exaggeration on my part but it's still very good! Though I must say that there was a bit less clarity at the bottom of the picture, I couldn't really see what was down there. O_o
But still I say again it's so much better than I could ever do! Keep it up!

P.S. It'd be pretty cool if you experimented a bit more with shading and maybe even inking...

I will try with that in the future, thanks for the ideas. Hahah and it's not that great, haha I don't know if I gave a whole lot of definition to the bottum, but ya know how that is. Anyway thanks again for the review.

Okay so this is a very good atempt at an original scale drawing .

Just, as I learned how to do realism, I learned a few interesting facts about how anime ties in with it. Anime and Realism may have two very different concepts but a lot of the placements are much the same.

In anime, the hair tends to be wild and very big. Give more aerodynamics to the hair and lift it up more. It will give the illusion of length to the head.

The eyes are very close together which is a common problem for someone starting with realism. A realism rule would be two put an eyes width between the two but I wouldn't say that so much in anime. Instead, put a small, realism eyes between the two and then erase it. Then you should have a good gap between the two eyes that will look for professional.

The eyebrows are very low which gives the illusion of anger which I think you were going for but it doesnt look to well executed. Instead, raise the eyebrows but arch them up and give the brow a furrow to it. Then give the eyes an eyelid which will give the same illusion of anger but with more detail and very interesting to the eye.

The eyes are also directed to high up on the face. Lower them down to about midway on the face. I know this sounds ludicrous but this is the same rule that applies in realism. It works, trust me .

The nose, like the one in the shessomaru one is very nicely done, but the lips are way to far. A good trick to have in your arsenol is to push the lips up maybe a centemeter or two below the nose and then etch in a lower lip dash below the lip line. This way it will look a lot more professional.

That always means you must take the chin up and straighten it out. A good thing to do here is bring it in and not make it look so boxy. Also, the lines need to be less sloppy which will give the air of grace and authority.

The neck may appear to be arched in on humans or in anime but it is not so. Dont arch the neck but keep it straight. On girl anime characters it normally doesnt touch the ears but on muscular males the neck line goes from below the ears and straight down.

Thats all I'll critique you on today .

Thanks I need a good critic haha. I will use your advise in the future. I may have to come here to remember it but I will. Thanks again.

this is amazing! i can't believe you can actually do anime. the face structure is good, the bottom, a little fuzzy, as for the rest simple... i love it!!!!!! i can't do anime, it looks like those airhead people from the commercials.

keep drawing! oh! once again, try and get some graphite and reall go in there, shading everything.
