It’s getting easier and I’m actually starting to like drawing them. Although I’m “just sharing”, advice is welcomed.

Proud of the head, and the shading of it's mouth. Not so much about the body. Yet on paper it's the easy part, but seems I can't really add depth. What you guys thinks overall?

I was drawing on the plane but these two sketches just don't look right. Any tips?

All critiques are welcome

Still need more work to reach the reference level, but it was a fun practice. Appreciate any feedbacks to improve.

Thank you for the feedbacks in my earlier post. https://www.reddit.com/r/learntodraw/s/1mvAKfVyNa

After some check ups i still remener most of the things from the draw a box, picked up where i elft off aith ghosted lines, still need to pratice more

Ill try to do some of the studies even if its only for qround 30 min, hope thats enough to get learn it

Still trying to improve my drawing skills. Ive noticed that I love drawing animals. More than botanicals. If it is more fun to me it will show up in the drawing.

It's supposed to be Dante from the new Devil may cry anime. Thanks for any advice.

My biggest struggle when it comes to art is drawing heads correctly, I’ve tried everything, I learnt the skull and the planes of the face, I bought Marco Bucci’s course on how to draw and paint the head and watched it like 3 times, I’ve copied Loomis, Bridgman, Michael Hampton and artists all over Pinterest, I did the 100 heads challenge and I just don’t know if there’s something wrong that I’m doing

The sketchbook that I use is specifically for head drawings and studies and I plan to fill it up so I guess my question is other than constant practice is there anything else I can do to improve? Because I understand the skull and the planes of the face but I guess my hand still needs times to catch up

These are my drawings with the reference so you guys can compare, I think I also have proportion issues and for that I am doing gesture drawings

I don't know if I have the right so I decided not to show the credit of my account. But nevermind, what do you think about it ? Looks like a girl and a boy mixed together 😭

Asking for a reason. I know that they have all these books that tell you how to draw anatomy and perspective and what not but I couldn't really get into it and always dropped them. But now I find a drawing I like and try my best to replicate it and I have been getting lots better. I don't publish or post anything I draw that way of course because I didn't draw it originally.

I'm going to move this to a larger canvas and I have no idea what to do for a background. Any critique is welcome as well

(Censored due to nsfw rule)

Im aiming for a dreamy realism, something like the drawing of prud’hon. I feel like the shading could be a lot more smooth, but I’ve used tissues and q tip to blend and it still feels streaky and off.

Im mainly focused on the body, the background was added in an attempt to make it look more real. Im aware theres some minor proportion issues, but more concerned with the shading at the moment.

Study on moon’s mxtr amazing art.

Photo studies

any advice and specific recommendations on books or videos that helped you draw faces/portraits best? since that’s what I like drawing but don’t have a lot of practice with it yet. Felt like I did a lot wrong and this took too long cause I redid it twice since I disliked the first one so actually 2nd attempt lol

I know it’s not symmetrical & messed up the guidelines. Is early shading unnecessary? Should I focus on sketching everything out first, or is it okay to lightly shade as I go? *reference pic not attached

Im currently practicing how to make clothing folds and shading em but tbh when i use the same pen i use to shade hard objects it just doesnt seem to look right. Tips?
