I have no idea what I'm doing!

Hello there, I'm Loon, I've been drawing since a really young age, and I aspire to work professionally as an artist, but I've got a long way to go before that happens.
So,anyways, I thought I'd share some of my stuff with you guys.

    I'd say you're on the right track. I'd say at least some of these are from reference, and that's a good thing. There's some good energy and gesture in these. Keep working on the areas you think are weakest, draw constantly from life and from reference and I think you'll do fine.

    Mastery is the result of ceaseless error, combined with ruthless self-appraisal.

    Thanks man, Though sometimes I have trouble finding references for the poses I have in mind.

    some more stylized stuff?

    start with some gestures

    You're doing all the things you should be doing, so keep doing them and skills will be along shortly.

    What Mustang said, but I have a prettier, manlier voice, so it should be even MORE encouraging.

    (those gesture drawings are awesome, and you can always use yourself as reference if you dont find the right picture with the specific pose)

    Yes, with a quick verbal "boom." You take a man's peko, you deny him his dab, all that is left is to rise up and tear down the walls of Jericho with a ".....not!" -TexiKen
