I'm not the most experienced artist, but I figured it would be helpful if I could receive some constructive criticism.

Obviously, these aren't all of my drawings, but they're the better/more recent ones that don't make me facepalm, at the very least.

Human figures are always the most difficult to draw, as is apparent here. Your black cat is nice, but everything else looks like a pile of sticks. Their poses are straighter than a desert highway. You may also want to work on clothing. Folds and shading are very important; clothing is not a second skin, it sits on top of the person.

May I talk, for the minute or two I have here? OK.

I like the effort and shading that was put into it, but you do have some major details you could work on. Like Blue said, human figures are very hard to figure out especially if you don't quite understand proportions (I'm guilty as well). The cat is cool and the fur is a nice little touch and change from the skimpy body suits the women wear. The figure behind it has some 'off' shading (IE: pillow shading). Or maybe that was intentional, you tell me. The backgrounds don't have a vanishing point from what I see. And they're sloppy-ish as well. You could also put some detail into the foreground.

Overall, I'm happy with what I see. If the drawings were more fluid and spiced up a bit they'd be much better and people would come to appreciate your artwork much more than before.

i see you do digital drawing.
good, good!

but perhaps it is a good idea to get really good in traditional art, before "venturing" into digital art.
also, as others have said, your anatomy needs work; have a look at this:

its a link to about 6 or 7 guides on how to effectively draw manga in a more realistic and technicaly improved manner.

hope this helps!

do you have a deviantart account? i want to follow you.

heh, i actually draw the outline on paper with pencil, then scan it in and only color it on the computer.

What WAS the rustling?

It probably was a turkey, they're not that uncommon around here so you'll often see them on the side of the road. It sounded around the size of a turkey as well.

Anyway update i guess

figured it might be worthwhile to make this live again

also sorry for the traditional drawings being blurry, the scanner is being fussy so i took photos with my phone which was obviously a great idea

Obviously an excellent idea
