The shading on the cat and duck are the best out of the drawings. Your pencil work is good but you may want to try easing up on your lines since they seem rather hard. As for your paint work, you could use some practice for sure, but if you keep up with it you can surely be quite good. I will not speak on digital art since I have never worked in that area. Overall you have potential so keep it up!

Hi! Thank you! I highly appreciate critique. What do you mean by the lines being hard, though? I'm not sure what you mean. Like the outlines are too dark/there or something else completely?
I'll admit I barely paint because the brushes I use make me feel like I have no control over what happens to the painting, which frustrates me. So I only paint when I have to, like for the project. Thank you, though!


-------------------------------------
I have several things to add, I just have to scan them in. So the first post should be updated soon.


EDIT: Added more drawings and sprites. I also added notes to the drawings.

I added another rubber duck drawing.

I also might have some more sprites to add fairly soon.

Your pencil drawings are really good. I love the cat one, and the flowers, the duck ones are cute too.

Thank you! My sister loves the kitty. She tried to steal my notebook after I drew him because she wanted him for herself.

Wow, it's been longer than I thought I last updated. So it's about time I do. :O I added a few new drawings and some sprites I did for Suki and ShadowedFortune.

I'll also add the potato and birdie when I can use the scanner.

I like your stuff, can't wait to see how Smarsh turns out ;)

Thank you! My drawing of Smarsh is currently an outline with no, uhh, prickles. The snout might be too skinny/long, but I think it's kinda cute, so I'm reluctant to change it.

Added the images for the potato and parakeet. I also added the picture of Smarsh I drew.

I might move things around sometime, it seems to be rather cluttered.

Reorganized and spaced some things out more. I also added the presents/boxes I made for ShadowedFortune and the little animals I made for Nightshayde.

I like the shading alot. You know how the lighting works and that really helps to add a 3d effect to the picture! My favorites are the two rubber ducks, especially with the one facing towards you. The only thing I noticed is that it might be nice not to make your lines so thick. It makes them look more realistic if they aren't so bold and dark. Overall you are a great artist and are just going to get better and better!
