That sucks so bad I wanna punch someone in the face.

A pic of Noel Gallagher I started some time ago. Couldn't bother finish it though, mainly because Photoshop is a pain in the ass.

I really think you need to get out of your comfort zone when it comes to faces. Most of the are very similar with the bone structure and facial features. Kind of seems that your drawing the same guy over and over again, if ya know what I mean.

Everything looks really nice and shiny though, and damn! You're impoving fast. That chainsaw guy is awesome.

That took you five minutes? More like five seconds.

It's kind of boring how they have pretty much the same pose. Apart from that, pretty nice.

If you enjoy drawing I see no reason to stop. And if you want to improve, just practice more and keep pushing yourself.

The thing you should ask yourself though, why do you draw? Do you do it for yourself, or for someone else?

It's wrong way around genius.

Clean. Everything looks really nice. That Berlin co. design is really nice, too bad about that asshole though.

Aweeeeesome.

You want feedback? On what? Srsly man. It's a box with hair, a mouth and a soulpatch. Not much to critique on.

Nice work. The nose is a bit dodgy though, looks kinda flat. And the eyes differ in size. But great work nontheless.

Yay. You can draw a circel. Way to go.

ShirtTurtles' is aweesome.

Hell yes I would. Picasso was a fraud and the only reason he succeded was because the pretentious, pseudo-intellectual modern art movement approved his shitty artwork.

So what if it's "his style"? That doesn't make any less crappy. If you post your "art" on a forum you should expect people to comment on it and share their opinions.

Take what people say about your artwork into consideration, practice and try to improve. Or use the "It's my style"-argument and continue to be shitty. Your choice.

The head shape sucks even for a manga character. Look into that.

This is exactly where the problem lies, if you know you draw crappy arms, practice! Don't keep making up lame excuses about it.

After all, the reason you post your work on a forum is to get opinions on it, right?

im just learning.

Well that's good.

Lol. Wtf are you talking about?

And it was mostly traditional art that required skill

Um, no?

Seriously, do you have any idea of what you're talking about?

Keep telling yourself that and you will never improve.

Everytime I try to use it my lines come out shaky and consequently bad. Is practice the best way or is there some certain trick to it?

It's not like there's a secret trick or anything, but try to do quick and confident lines and personally I find it quite useful to go over and fix the lines with the selection tool afterwards to get a really clean look, takes some getting used to.

And have the brush smoothing set to 40, or that's what works out best for me atleast.

Still, Practice is the key to pretty much everything. So keep practising.

Ok, so I know it might be supposed to look like that or some shit. But those hands are awful. Really. And what's up with half of the eyes not having an outline?

I'd suggest studying some anatomy, it really helps even you're aiming for a more cartoony style.

BUT, this is... uhm. I forget. He's from the anime/manga book called "Dragon Eye" which I read a couple months ago. So, I felt like drawing him:

He gotta have some really fucking strong arm muscles to be able to hold the sword like that. Srsly man.

That pose is really unnatural. There's no way a person would sit like that. It also looks like the knees don't touch the ground. Fix that.

The linework could use use some cleaning up, and how about some shading?

You're up to a good start though, just keep practising.

Use reference. That's the only way to learn to draw anything realistically.

Haha. Nathaniels Nene is flippin awesome.

I thought it said pixel badgers. Damn.

Niiice. Fun prizes too, not just the regular boring cash. (Not that I don't like money or anything but.. you know. Or maybe not, whatever.)

Moleskines (How the fuck do you pronounce that btw?) are really awesome. I just bought one a couple of days ago. Totally great.

Aw. I got really disappointed with this thread. I actually thought someone had made art by shooting with a paintball gun on a canvas or something.

WHATEVER.
