Hi , this is my sketch book. Here , I've put drawings by me up so that you can critique them. My timezone is London Time , so the dates I put with the images may be different than yours.
Please take a look at my images and give me pointers on:
What am I doing right?
Where are my weaknesses?
How should I improve?
Are there any resources , (tutorial , books , e.tc) , that you recommend?
Feel free to critique on any flaws you find , and I will try to use your critique to help my next pieces ^^. Also , If you have any tips that I could use , then please post them.
.::UPDATES::.

nightshade29 Please browse through my images and give me pointers: What am I doing right? Where are my weaknesses? How should I improve? Goodness! I just posted those exact words in that exact order. Is that what every aspiring artist work towards? Or was I just here and regurgitated it up in my thread? I'm sorry D: I'm functioning on 3hrs of sleep DD:

Well, I think you need to work on you anatomy first. I'm not seeing too much structure in your humans right now. Try not to focus too much on making the folds in clothes and stuff until you've got the anatomy down--it'll be easier for you later. :3 Try looking up some tutorials on deviantART, there is a lot over there and they've helped me a lot. And hands, you're hands need some work. Again, deviantART has tutorials. :3 Or try sketching your own hand. I've done that a lot myself, I love to sketch hands. :3
I don't have a lot of time to get into detail, but that's what I can give for now~ Have fun drawing! :3

set0free - I admit , I don't focus on the anatomy as much as I should , I tend to focus on the eyes and clothing more sweatdrop
I'll remeber to focus on the hands and anatomy for my next piece. I'm actually practising anatomy for an assignement by The Titanium Spork , that should me practise anatomy as well.
Thank you for your tips and critique by the way!

i'd actually suggest doing some figure drawing before getting into anatomy. there seems to be more of a lack of understanding of form then structure. Errol has a figure drawing work shop here somewhere. edit: i found it but there is supposed to be some nude stuff in it so just to warn/let you know http://gamfiguredrawing.blogspot.com/

Hi hi Try out PosemaniacsThey have a Flash training tool for gesture drawing. You can choose how long you want the pose to stay before it changes to the next pose. Another nice thing about this tool is that they show you 3d muscle models. You can see where all the muscles are positioned in different poses. (^_^)
