i love to draw but sadly im not as good as u guys!
ben or bomu i think u rock i always was bad until i bought ur book on the art of drawing manga! i hope u come out with an advanced version cause im around intermediate. but im still pretty good for a 12 year old not as good as cloud! i think my prob is that i draw too sketchy and i can never draw a clean peice of artwork. and yes i believe that evil shall rule as my imature 12 year old brain goes.hehe well about this peice i thought i shoulda drew somthing about one of the characters who is evil ken:the samarai of the family.

Thanks! O That's really good, you can probably draw bodies better than me but something I would point out is the eye is too big for the head. But good job! Here, I resized it 4 u:

whoa your 12 years old!!! well thats a fantastic pic there are a few anatomy probs but for a 12 year old that is not a problem. lol i think he has enough swords he would be a bit buggered if he fell in a river lol. one tip is although the clothes are very original and cool you should think about the practicality of a samurai wearing a suit? anyways very good work hope to see more

woot i can write shit in here i am well proud.

Glad to see you finaly got it to work!

Could i suggest that perhaps in the future you resize your images to between 400 - 800 pixels wide before posting them up this will allow people to view the piece as a whole and make it easier to give you comments on the work oh and since you can imbed them in the post like this (600 pixels wide) makes it easier as well!

Right now for a few comments, the sword on his back is either really short for such a large handle or you forgot to add it coming out the other side

The ear is perhaps a little high and maybe a touch small.

The colouring looks alright but you appear not to have a constant light source so some shadows and highlights are in the wrong places. I'm guessing that it was coloured on a PC or Mac in something like Photoshop. I would suggest neatening up the lines a bit before you start colouring, this will give a better overall finish to your images. Bomu has a tutorial on the main organic metal website which covers one way in which this can be done. Personally i tend to redraw my pics completely in Illustrator to get nice smooth lines this of course is not really required but i like the nice smooth lines this achieves before i start colouring a piece.

Perhaps a few more details in the hair would also make a differance rather than solid black this will make it look more dynamic and like hair

Hopefully this helps some i'm sure you will get more comments from the others shortly.

Edit - Or due to my slow speed before me!
Cloud - great minds think alike!

Oh and i just noticed the hand holding the sword his fingers should be lower than the handle at the moment they are coming through the handle! (hope that made sense)

you fools! he's souposed to have many swords cause he's cool!besides it's only two regular swords and a big sword (he probibly put a spell on it to make it not a burden but i dont mention that in my book) and thank you cloud for your remark and his eye could be a little smaller but otherwise his eye is souposed to be a little big/long than usual ppl
and webb u are absoulutly right the sword used to be off center of the place that u hold it (hope that made sense too and webb note out all the places that arnt constant light and i'll note them
(again i havent finished the final details!) but it is weird that all my friends get to read it but none of the real proffesional pplget to cause it would take too long and im planning to sell it one day as a real manga comic!(unfourtunatly its going to be one of those dumass fake manga(goes the wrong way hey im doing a () inside a () (forget the name)) cause i started it the wrong way.) im already at the second book at the end it took me a long while another thing its going to be soooooooo short so i gotta lenghthen up the first one before i finish vol.2!
