I'm going off of your nancreates tumblr, if you have more recent stuff, please show me.

-your posing is incredibly stiff feeling
-you rely very heavily on symbol drawing and seems like you have little experience drawing from life
-too little variation in your colors, not enough contrast in your shading, and pretty worried you haven't applied color theory at all to your stuff
-do even try drawing backgrounds?

this is after at least a year of schooling, right?

if you're going into illustration, i highly suggest either working your ass off by studying independently because your classes clearly aren't cutting it or switching your major

do you carry around a sketchbook or draw from life? if not get to it

(even if you're going for a cartoony style, it helps)

I absolutely agree with most of this. Particularly the colors; I really do limit my art in terms of colors. I keep meaning to do those palette challenges (and in fact took a lot of requests here) to break of the monotony of my color usage.

I do carry a sketchbook around but I admit to doodling in it more than anything else. XD;; But I'll start making drawing from life more of a priority. Could you explain what you mean by symbol drawing? Never mind, I figured this one out.

I'm not sure if you were trying to be mean or if you were actually interested in helping out, but either way thanks. :)

DA

I have to say I admire the class with which you take criticism, even harsh criticism. I respect that partly because it feels like it's a rare quality.

Thanks. I have to admit, for about five minutes I was devastated but there's truth in that anons words so while I didn't like the delivery, I appreciated the message. :)

Classiest response to a dickish troll that I've seen! Though seriously, they were just being a dick.

Thanks! That anon was telling the truth in what I need to work on but I know I'm progressing and that's what's important. :)
