1) Overstated Nose (you drew out the entire outline of the nose rather than using a few dashes to suggest its placement) 2) Flat Black eyes - Eyes are a huge part of what makes manga what it is. The fact that you draw such large black pupils lacking an iris and reflections makes it look un-mangaish. 3) Overstated mouth - rarely do you see manga artists color their character's lips, especially if it's a male character. Rather, they rely on shading, so as not to detract from their character's eyes. 4) Coloring - i can't really knock you on this one, cause you need to start somewhere. but flat, unlayered colors is a no-no. Try using colored pencils instead of markers or microsoft paint to give the colors more dynamism. Also keep in mind that the front view of a face is one of the most difficult poses to draw - you must be symmetrical in the features, and anything off balance leads to unattractiveness (just as in real life). Try the 3/4 pose first, as it's more forgiving on novice artists (you can get away with being unsymmetrical). Hope that helps | ||

On topic: Yea, you need to look harder. Figure out which basic shapes of what you want to draw, and go from there. Start off with the big parts, such as a semi-circle for the head, the box for the chest, circle for joints and tubes for arms, as said above. Then add details progressively to the entire drawing - don't stick to one part where you fully detail it and then move onto the next, but instead, try to add a some basics to the details all around then further improve on them as you go along. When you want to correct mistakes, which you will be doing a lot, it really sucks having to erase 15 minutes of work. | ||
