I've been doodling for a while now, but i want to start doing some more substantial work. I don't have much experience and would appreciate some advice on how to improve my current style.

Comments and criticisms are greatly appreciated.

Lol, fail. But your stuff looks pretty cool already, all I can say is to keep practicing, and dont use lined paper.

Ok , i'll do some new stuff in colour and on non lined paper as well.

It'll be a day or so though , got an ear infection just now , so i don't really feel up to doing much.

Any ideas on how i can make my drawings more interesting though , it all seems a bit bland to me just now.
