Well, that's a bit drastic. Just keep practicing. You will get better. I suggest picking up a book on anatomy or something and just studying it. And remember you have got like, 100,000 bad drawings in you, we all do, so you might as well get cracking on them. Drawing is very difficult. I am old as fuck and I still don't draw nearly as well as I wished I could, and I went to art school.

Um... why are they are both reaching for their crotches? :shock:
Because I suck at drawing....I'll quit posting on them so you don't have to see any more deformed monsters grabbing for eahother's crotches.
Hey, I'm not bad at drawing, but even I do those "mistakes". No matter how good you are, these things will happen.
For instance, I once drew a fight scene with Goku vs. Vegeta, and got the comment "it looks like Vegeta is trying to poke Goku with his dick" :? . I just replied "no, it's just your dirty mind".
Hell, I even went to art classes, and still I make mistakes.
Mistakes are the best ways of learning, and critique is the best way to notice the mistakes, as I use to say.
And to add: you do not suck at drawing. The only thing to do is to practice, practice, practice, because even the best practice.
No more time for Daizex. Goodbye folks!

You should get one of those little doll things, I can't remember their names. They're great for proportions. Your work is really colorful and vibrant, mine used to be until I got better, then it became monochrome and lost a lot of it's life, so watch out for that, be sure to concentrate on the color as well as the shape.

I hate digital coloring, it's basically the biggest pain in the ass ever. Well, Maybe digital inking is worse. Fuck, everything digital sucks.

Are OC-Only pics ok to post in here? This is a picture of my fan character for this upcoming DB manga I'm going to attempt to do. I'm still working on some skills and detailing before I truly begin the project. I don't expect it to be a long one either but meh, we'll see. Also I'm not sure if I'll actually give my guy, Sora the Kamehameha wave in the comic but I just wanted to do this for fun.

Is that an actual comic?
If so, where can I read it?
Gohan: "You're a Buddhist." Kuririn: "A hungry Buddhist!"

Well, it's a comic...and it's online. That's something.

But as of now, I've only hosted it on Imageshack and posted it here. And that's the only I've posted.

...until now.

There's the start of the word from Announcer Guy Show's sponsor. I'm about...80% done with the second page of the ad.

EDIT: 100%

I made a fusion between Krillin and Chiautzu (I'm not even sure they can fuse...), but I really don't know what his name should be, I only came up with Kritzu, Chalin and Krilutzu.
And all three of them don't fit him.

they are kiiiinda the same size but i think krillin would have to power down a bit.

lol theyd have to be in some serious trouble to need to fuse; but i think if it came down to those 2 being the only ones left in a fight; they're doomed :P

I did another Sora picture for the fan manga I'm doing, hehe. The color's kinda rushed in some parts because I was testing my new tablet, although I'm still going to ink all my artworks' lineart on paper before I color with the tablet.

I would really suggest changing the hair style. Right now it looks like you lifted Teen Gohan's style wholesale, and in your earlier pic, I couldn't tell that it wasn't Goku.

Yeah, I've been wondering about changing that, I did get a few comments similar to yours as well by a few people in the past. The problem is that I've been so attatched to it now after so many amounts of artwork of him, it'll feel weird. If I can try to think up a suitable change that wouldn't seem weird, I'd be up for it.
