Be a very good critic! P.S. (some of this work, 2 pictures have been done in my schoolbooks... :3 )

Age has very little to do with artstic skill, im 27 and having been drawing most of my life and im not as good as you are...
so that being said I really like your work. I was a bit worried when I saw the anime work but you also did a good mix of background/building and other style, its easy to get fixed on one style, dont do it!

Your work being so nice you should do some on a tablet for digital art after all having your own artwork in a game you made is a cool feeling.

i soooooooooo don't mean to be a buzz kill but a lot of ur work looks like trace work from anime try learning to draw heads from scratch the circle and build up so you learn the gravity if u draw tracing you'll never grow beyond that but tracing is great for beginners to learn quickly
develop ur own style and practice a lot hahahah i,m not very good but I've already taken step to become better.
(I do like the landscape hahahah so nice i always fail when come to perspective view points.)

i think your pictures are very cute! : D I love the 1st one a lot, i really wish i could draw more feminine like you...
Also, i love the variety in perspectives/poses. Not a lot of people like trying out different poses and stuff, so that's really impressive for your age, wow.
... XD U make me want to draw in schoolbooks more...


idk if you want constructive critique btw, (or even from me) but i can try to offer some to u. Whenever my sister gave me critique, she'd roughly draw over my pictures to give me a better sense of what she meant, and i could follow/refer to her lines if i wanted to. i could choose to erase them too, if i disagreed, and i liked it more than saying "blah blah arm is blah blah bloo"... XD

Anyway, here; i hope u do not mind me drawing over them... i picked 3.. X0 :

Well, I'm back. And let's start with the comments.

@Lato
Thanks for the compliments and I'll try stuff with photoshop or something like that.

@mila26
I have also some my very own creations but I prefered these so I took pictures of them.

@Magical_RuNE_Knight2001
Awww... Thanks if you really meant that. And, I don't mind you drawing over them. As I read it somewhere (can't remember where... ),
"Every work can be better!"

Thank you all for your comments.
Have a nice day, ~Kali3

[Magical_RuNE_Kni...]

Of course i meant it. >< : )
i really like cute/pretty illustrations... i played a dress-up game once and i'm still hoping i can try the style... lol. I also admire artists who aren't afraid to try something out of their comfort zone/ try all sorts of interesting poses or angles/ are capable of well expressing themselves in art.

Anyway, keep it up. : D Don't lose ur creative touch. (i sound creepy lol.)

[Kali3]

Thank you Magical_RuNE_Knight2001. I really like drawing but sometimes I don't have the inspiration. Any inspiration boosting tips? lol
Only thing I noticed is that in school, I draw, a LOT! My books and notebooks are filled with sketches. . But I should be drawing home,
not in school.
Have a nice day, ~Kali3

[Magical_RuNE_Kni...]

Same : D idk why, but drawing in school I'd so easy and creative... I haven't drawn in class for awhile, though, even though I wish.

As for the inspiration thing... I cant tell if thats a question you wanted me to answer. XD er, did u?
I don't consider myself very creative or much of an ideas person. But drawing outside is very enjoyable for me, drawing while volunteering, and having a desktop of landscapes helps me think too/ i like. Maybe u can try something similar, or look at other people's work. 'v'
