Hey there everyone! I'm an aspiring manga artist. I've been drawing for about 4 years now, and I'd love to get feedback and advice so I can keep improving! A lot of my art is fanart right now, but I plan on drawing more original stuff soon!


I'm going to start with some of my older art...


My Eyes of Naruto series from 2013 (all colored in GIMP with a computer mouse):




A human version of Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony, a birthday gift from 2013 to my best friend! Colored in FireAlpaca with a computer mouse:



"Draw this again" meme, a fanart of one of SophieChan's original artworks. Done in 2011, 2012, and 2013:



[B]Jingle from Animal Crossing, a Christmas drawing from 2013 done in FireAlpaca with a tablet.



View a speedpaint of that here:

Now, some newer art!

An iPhone background of Ene from Mekakucity Actors/Kagerou Project:



Here's a speedpaint of this drawing:

Here's a link to another version, where Ene is smaller and looks better as an iPhone background:

Ayano Tateyama from Kagerou Project/Mekakucity Actors:

And finally, this year's Christmas drawing, Baymax from Big Hero 6!:


Speedpaint coming soon!

Okay guys, that's it for now! I have more old drawings if anybody's interested, but I wanted to at least try to keep this post short haha...

Constructive criticism on both the drawings themselves and the videos I've made are more than welcome! Thanks! ^-^

I like your drawings, and it's cool seeing how you improved.

But I don't really like the picture with the girl in the water. I think the main issue is that the water just looks kind of lifeless. Water distorts light, and I don't really see that in the picture. The water has different shades, but they don't really look normal in comparison to real water. Especially since the girl is producing ripples in the water and that should change the way the light is reflected.

And also since water distorts light, the images of the fish, sea turtle, and the girl's hands and legs probably shouldn't be quite as clear as they are.

Also I don't really think it's possible for someone to float like that. Usually part of the middle of the body gets submerged, at least a little bit. If it is that way in the picture, it's not very obvious. And I think the shirt is supposed to be see-through, but if that's the case, I should be able to see the top of her pants under her shirt. It doesn't really look that way though, so it looks a bit unnatural.

That's just what I noticed.

You're right! Thanks for pointing all of that out. I'll work hard on improving it all! I especially need to practice coloring water more, haha... Thanks again!

Some of the eyes look a bit off, but besides that it looks really good!
