thank you very much for visiting

um I was unable to make the Kingdom Carousel book unfortunately so are you sure you've got the right artist ?

LOL ish ok hon, I you for the first one, hope you got to the super fancy Ilama

Thank you very much, you are very kind. I've still got so much to learn and a really long way to go yet so don't give up as well, just keep trying

LOL you and me both then, I'm way better at females despite their lack of presence in my gallery
My best advice would be to study anatomy. It'll be painfully hard because anatomy is one of the most difficult things to learn but it is essential. Look at flow and quality of line, form and characteristics.
Goodness knows that when I look at my gallery now (which hasn't been updated in like two years), I feel like I'm starting at a lot of blank faces. When you're dealing with character pieces, personality is important, as important as having a believable anatomic structure (stylized or not).

But yes, anatomy is your best friend in this field... if you can attend Life Drawing classes, PLEASE DO! It's the best way to learn figures. Check out animations, comics, films and game concept art for studying characteristics and personalities.
And just when you think you've got the hang of something, push yourself further, try being exaggerated or really tame, don't let yourself become too used to one thing, try new stuff ^_^

Hope this rambling helps
