I actually had a lot to say about your proportions and anatomy, but you seem to just be figuring it out on your own time, so just keep at it. You're actually improving pretty rapidly. My biggest recommendation is to do a lot of figure study, and do your best to shade them as accurately as possible. I always get the best understanding of form that way. Painterly styles also help for practice, not to mention they're easy to correct.

And keep it up with the unprompted strapons.


Sweet glow on that JO, bro. Must have been a lot of positive energy at the sesh.

This one I tried to break away from just leaving the background solid white. I feel like my perspective and anatomy is getting closer and closer to my ideals.

It's been a while since I last posted in here. This pic was my first ever commission. I felt honored that the people that have reviewed this liked it, in general. I felt like I was winging it on this piece.

This is my latest piece of my original character, Devil-Lynn. Judging by the stars and reviews so far, people must've thought this one sucks. And here I actually enjoyed this one, and thought I knew what I was doing.

I think it is funny that as you progress your drawings turned from being overtly sexual to candidly pornographic.

You have improved a ton though. I wish I learned as fast as you. the only thing i would suggest is that you put a more interesting and fitting background and add more depth to your characters with better tones.
