This is better than most anime work I could do at this time, since my focus is now more realistic artwork. I greatly appreciate artists who can still draw like this! Maybe then I would actually finish my manga...

My only critiques are that you would probably be able to see a little bit of her other shoulder and that strange triangle thing by her hair is a little distracting. However, I only notice these things because I have a critical eye and I probably wouldn't mention it if you weren't as good as you are. And I only critical things so that you can continue to improve. And I really hope you didn't copy this or something. It doesn't look like it, though. Is this from a particular manga?

I really like the shading on the eyes. It looks like a real manga!! I also like that you use crosshatching. Not enough people use that, I think. It takes a greater degree of skill, in my opinion, to give the impression of curves with line. That's how I do my portraits when they're in pencil.

Keep up the good work and welcome to the forum!!

Rin-chan

First off, I want to give both of you a big thank you.
Im really happy that someone appreciated my work and did a comment on it.

@rinchan: Sorry to disappoint you but I didnt use tablet. I manually draw her, scan her and clean her at photoshop.

And about the triangle thingy, its just part of the background I put. And that triangle
is actually Renga's symbolism.

And lastly, I was inspired by one of Nana fuku's works.
So, I honestly tried to draw like her but I only did once. I was trying to practice some of the things I learn from a japanese friend of mine, who is also an artist.

Hope that helps you?


Anyways, you can also check my other works here.
