Thanks for the encouragement! Just two days left until payday and then I can go pick up some more art supplies and have another go at it. Right now though I'm due for a power nap.

This is how I draw eyes.

sorry its so rough
To keep them consistent it's important to see the face as if it were 3d.
the cross lines help to do that, and then simply drop them onto the face where they should be.

the most important thing though is looking at it in 3d, if u dont do that then things will look flat, or the second eye " is bigger than the other, they look weird..."
anyways, hope that helps a little?

also
please check out this topic i just made if u need help or want to help others on their art.

tyring to come up with extra faces for background ppl...its hard to be original and not have everyone look the same

Yeah I have that problem too, focusing on making hands look better at the moment, they're not as clumsy now as they were last week.

Most difficult? Proportions and the hands. THE HAAAANNNNDDDSSS!!

Oh gosh thats so true! and you can't have the background extras overshadow any of the main characters :S
sometimes i feel like i have to change my style just to make the mains stand out more!! :]

Hair: It's not like I'm having trouble at all, but I can't draw braids to girls and more stylish hair to boys.
Angles: Not that bad, but trying my best to overcome it.
Speed lines, effects, toning, etc.: Never done one.
Feet: But not as bad as before.

And a lot more...

For me, it's drawing hands, feet, backgrounds & male charaters (and their hair styles). For some reason, I can draw women & young girls without a problem. Clothes aren't a big deal for me...
