Liebe's Art Eye see you

[Mr_Liebe]

Go ahead and rip them, I know they're terrible, I tried and tried kept erasing the first one until I did it the last time and kept it like that. Would've been a waste of time to keep at that so I just drew them, and figured I'd do better at them once I got some advice from the artists on this site.

make sure the fingers are not too fat and the fingertips are round in manga(even realistic manga) fingernails are not so defined.
another thing, when you do hands, look at yours, and see which fingers are the longest. it goes in this order(highest-lowest) Middle>Ring>Pointer>Pinkie>Thumb.
in the upper right specifically, dont draw lines so large to show knuckles. draw smaller ones that dont go all the way around and slightly angle to hand, whick is really never completely flat. on the knuckles where the fingers begin, make sure that they're round. last thing, the hand narrows downas it gets closer to the wrist.

Fill more pages with hands many many more, then move onto the next body part

If you want to be good at anything you have to put in the time, as for money, I don't spend much money on my art hobby at all, I bought a tablet 5 years ago that cost me around $200 (something nice family could get you for a birthday or christmas present)

then it was bye bye paper and hello digital art.

[JJJorgie]

Yeah, what Cloudy said. If you want to get good at something and be passionate about it, you have to invest your whole self into it. But, if you're concerned about money, there are a lot of cheap alternatives as far as art supplies goes.

I used to just use photocopy paper, usual pencils and a decent soft eraser and that was it. wasn't that expensive.

[JJJorgie]

I myself prefer pencil and paper.

[Cloudy]

I don't know about where you live but for me a pack of pencils is like 3 dollars, pack of copy paper 500 sheets is around 7 dollars and under. so thats only like 10 dollars...but anyway.

I've been drawing on paper since i was a kid and learned all those tricks with it so feel free to do whatever you like, I just prefer tablet now, easy, clean and looks professional.

as for crits, I don't see anything that needs a crit so far, if you are using refs keep on using them and get your eye coordination up.

[Mr_Liebe]

Well, fire away.
