Your pencil drawings are really cool actually! Though I definitely feel like your digital drawings lack that sort of style your traditional drawings have.

If you wanna get into digital art, then you could always try making your digital art look like traditional art. Like you could use your art software's pencil brush to recreate that same look of your traditional art over a blank canvas.

YAAAAAAAAAAA

Please tell me if you have any advice/criticism :3

Really like the perspective on this one! The sharp linework and aggressive shapes convey the character's personality really well, it's giving me Studio Trigger vibes and I'm all for that. Your improvement is very noticeable across all of the colored pieces you've uploaded, keep it up!
My one criticism would be for the gun, as it's shaped very awkwardly towards the back with it missing a huge chunk and slanting downwards in a way guns aren't known to do. Perhaps more references images would come in handy.
Overall great work, looking forward to seeing you improve more!

It's heavily inspired by the 90's manga style :3
I don't really use it much, but it's still fun!

My god. Would love to see this more, there a reason you don't use this as much? Just personal preference?

Well, partly the reason I don't use it much is because my drafts really gets messy when using it. (Skill issue I guess💀)

And also I much prefer drawing more "cartonny" character :3 more freedom, and the faces are funnier than a realistic one, a bit like what Studio Trigger often did back then (like the anime "Panty and Stocking" for instance, even though it was made by Gainax) :3

But I can draw more 90's style, it doesn't bother me at all! It's a style I still enjoy drawing :3 I will try to draw more of it next time! :3

I'm glad you like it! :D🐀🐀🐀

nahhh i hear it, i didnt even consider the flexibility your usual style affords!! plus, i think this style probably just isnt super efficient for comic strips anyway (still idk wth im talking about). side note if its a skill issue then im level 0 lmaoooooo, i think you've seen what my sketches look like in my more detailed peices, itis INSANE. im bad at simplification i thnik
