The drawing above came out in terrible quality after being scanned so I am putting up a different (and much more violent) one.

This one scanned in unexpectedly bad quality. my scanner usually scans in disappointing quality or refuses to scan the entire picture if go to my page you will hopefully find at least one submission that you will like

Does a drawing of a blood covered zombie lacking genitals, nipples, his jaw, and a hand who has nails sticking out of his body and a sword where a hand should be really need an explanation?

oh, wait..... I just explained it.

That was rather mean, you guys...
But on the other hand, mean but fair.

You've got a long way to go.
One bit of advice: start thinking in 3D.
Right now, your works look flat.
Also, shading is usually a good friend, try it sometime.

Yeah no it's just your scanner man, sometimes it just makes your work look shit regardless of how skilled you are.

Get out.

A bad artist blames his tools.

Ok, you have a lot to work on, and you won't be able to improve without realizing this. Your scanner is working perfectly.

Look at your drawings and compare them to illustrations that's similar to what you're trying to create and notice the differences. At the moment everything's very flat and hard to distinguish, for example in the second picture you posted the back leg is sprouting out of the front leg rather than being in front / behind it like it should be. Rather than drawing something the way you think it should be, start off by drawing something that's right in front of you, trying to make it as accurate as possible, so that you can get a grasp on perspective, depth and tone, so you can use those skills later once you've mastered them. At the moment you've only used black and one shade of red, try to spread out your shades of colours in order to make things less flat, and in order to create texture.

Your artwork is fine, assuming your age, but I think it would actually look better without the blood or i you used a different technique for applying the ink instead of the infamous 'I'm getting bored of making this so i'm gonna scribble this in as fast as possible'.
; keep at it though and you might get pretty good, aka there's hope yet.

Just noticed your latest work, and I'm pretty sure we didn't get through to you...

Repeating everyone here:
We recommend stopping with the gory stuff for a while.
Start drawing basic stuff until you get somewhat of a grasp of the concept of shapes and lighting.
