Learn anatomy before you start drawing clothes.

And my god work on your Japanese writing, it's a disgrace to the Japanese.

Kapa, that wasnt a very helpful crit at all. ;>>

Hisoka; I do agree with Kapa, though I can help with some additional points. As Kapa pointed out, there is a lack of anatomy in your work, try to build the body around the bone structure first, then add muscles, ect. Try adding clothes after you've worked out your body proportions. There's pretty good guide here on DeviantArt.

Hey, Kapateen, that's not very nice.

Hisoka, you need to work on anatomy. Go here to have a look at the torso:

Okay? Once you've learned a bit on the torso then you can start shaping the male body properly. If you are happy with your body then you can start with clothes.
