    Thanks for the comment, Max

    I started drawing digitally last year, and haven't done any studies before. So i decided to get more serious about art and start with study recently. I have wasted a lot of time, and hopefully i can be improved day by day.

    hey danielle looks great.... the only thing i can think off right now is....
    maybe try to have a range of values for the different parts.... like... if the value range is from 0 - 10.... u should not have all the pieces going from 0-10.... maybe have some from 3-8.... another ones from 7-10.... and so on.... this will make it look like is not all the same.
    i hope i explained that right... lol

              Your going the right way on the two last pieces. I'm happy to see crits can help. For the bot you could even simplify the gun and use the lasso tool on it to have more straight parts, and simplify its own shapes. the same could be applied to your bot chest, to have a contrast between organic areas of the armor, and one more polish surface...which indeed would raise the lisibility of your design. Also his right arms is too clued to his torse, though I know you intented making what is called in jargon a shortcut. I kno what it is wana make some things like that to show own skills. It reminds me of some hideous I have done that were really worst than yours ( doesn't mean yours is bad by the way...It's just a fuckin' memory ) Keep it up. One antena on his head and you make an awesome asymetry. It's so easy to see what's up with others' stuff, than my own lol.....P.I.A !

                An portrait update from today. I'm totally suck at color!!! Is that because I'm afraid of using brighter color and saturated color? I have no idea... Can everyone help me out! pls..

                        Default Black and white


                        Some black and white human portrait learnt from Min Yum. Trying to do some experiments with purely value and form study before I get better iwith color.
