I'm a freshman college student in USA xD
and I draw when I'm bored haha (I'm actually engineering major xP)
Not much art education background (or none ), but I love art >< (planing to take some art courses next year)
anyhoo... here's my deviantArt page, if you want to drop by~ ^^

I first started with anime style last summer (around June, 2007 methink)
Then I started to try other styles with my cursor xD
Then finally my friend lent me his Wacom Tablet around Oct. 2007 methink
I started to try other styles again xD, (some failed LOL)
and now I practice from anime art to air-brushing and some sort of combination of the two xD (something I invented blaugh )

Please critique any pic as much as you can; it is perfectly fine even if it is a harsh truth, as long as it is honest sweatdrop

Style 1: I first started with anime style:
![User Image](https://fc02.deviantart.com/fs21/i/2007/233/f/f/Tear_Shinigami_CGed_by_fadingz.jpg)
Style 2: Then I started to play around with my mouse/cursor
![User Image](https://fc05.deviantart.com/fs21/i/2008/010/6/4/Tear_Grants_Wallpaper_by_fadingz.jpg)
Style 3: My friend then lent me his tablet, so I came up with a mixture of tablet +mouse xD
![User Image](https://fc05.deviantart.com/fs22/i/2008/010/5/f/Annie_Barrs_by_fadingz.png)
Style 4: Only mouse for line-art, and tablet for coloring + shading
![User Image](https://fc03.deviantart.com/fs24/f/2008/003/5/3/Inoue_Orihime_by_fadingz.png)
Style 5: Then I tried pure air-brushing (without line art and mouse independent)
![User Image](https://fc01.deviantart.com/fs23/f/2008/007/9/2/With_You_Always_by_fadingz.png)
Style 6: I then tried traditional anime coloring again yesterday (tablet independent)
![User Image](https://fc05.deviantart.com/fs24/i/2008/009/3/f/Ribbit_girl_Commish_by_fadingz.png)
Please let me know how I should improve in each style ><
I personally want to get better with style 4 through 6, but that might take a while
