None of these pictures are mine, actually. I googled them and then drew them (Yes, I drew them, but I cheated ;P) I kinda sorta stink at drawings that involve my imagination so I usually try avoiding that and instead draw what I know. Which is staring at something like a creeper and copying it perfectly XD

That sexy beast was Fran from Katekyo Hitman Reborn cause I'm a nerd :P

Tsuna Sawada from the same show :P

And that one's my favorite :D his name is Soul, believe it for not and he's awesome~
All three of these drawings were done in pen. Or... at least, they were drawn in pencil and gone over in pen :D and then I added cross hatching and what-not because that's my favorite form of shading.
So anyway, please tell me what you think!! :D

This is what I think: these are very good!! I love that last one, Soul was his name.. They look lifelike to me, and I can tell that you must have studied the real pictures for a while because I am sure that these look just like the real pictures. I wish I could draw like that, Loved it Liked it keep drawing!!!!

I'm jealous. I can never get those clean lines.
Anyways, I really loved these! I'm very interested in the characters, they seem cool.

Hey! Amazing job! I was never this good at 14 haha :D
My favorite one by far is the second pic. It has gorgeous shading, and his expression draws me in O_O PerfecT!
You're the first person I've met that cross-hatches! I could never get it, so I think what you're doing is really cool :D Keep it up! And keep posting!

Don't worry about the copying, i use to do it all the time, it's a great way to learn and practice. You obvious have potential, theses are great drawings, i have a feeling they would be quite accurate. Personally I'm not a pen person, i tend to go crazy and scribbly but you have done a pretty good job, just continue to work on the cross hatching, everything you do is very contained, i know its cartoon but not everything has be inside the lines, add a bit of contrast with in blocks of shading. It's hard to explain... but great work anyway.

XD They're really good! The proportions are right and everything, they look professional almost, not perfect, but very very good. Trust me, there's no shame in looking at something when you draw, its actually a natural part of practice, helps you realize where everything would and should go. Of course being able to draw from imagination is wonderful but memory tends to skip seemingly unimportant details that your art needs. I spent years drawing from imagination and my pictures never looked quite right, I started drawing using photos pulled off the internet and my drawing increased exponentially. Having a good base in necessary in the beginning, drawing beautifully from memory is the next step ;)



I see no reason to celebrate the random timing of natural events by eating poison and singing.
