u could tell me specific problems so i could fix them, instead of hitting me over the head with a book...

i am only 12..dont be too hard.

ok. I think ur biggest problem is ur hands. They look really wierd to me. His face looks ok but his whole torso area is way off. His right shoulder shouldnt be bigger than the left, it should be the same size or probably smaller, due to forshortening. his stomack muscles seem alittle long too..

And to top it off he's just plain skrawny! U'd think that if someone had any kinda "power" then he may be a little more buff.

Also, i think loxley is right about the anatomy book. Not the part about hitting urself with it, just that i think u shoulld buy one. They can be a big help.

let me tell you.... age makes no difference .

and, try to figure out things by yourself before asking the general populace.. sure asking may save time... but doing it by yourself is more rewarding... and you'll remember it better.

but seriously, like if i told you exact directions to do lighting, hand shading, etc..... it wouldn't look phenomenal, it'd look only slightly better ... just observe and figure out on your own.

its fun Smile

the cartoon head is sweet, keep thoughs up; and try to do the same with the body, that would be sweet.

if your looking for exact things, the hands are twisted outwards, which is probably why they look strange. It looks sort of like somebody dropped a giant flat block on concrete on top of him, and his arms are flat with his body. Not too much you can do about that but practice. Its a good start I suppose.
