Yup.
This is a color picture that is to be a chapter page in "Help Wanted" the manga I draw.

I just wanted to see if you thought it was good.

Oh, yeah, his name is Yuzu. Don't like him. like the picture.

It took me half an hour to do everything (pencil,ink,and color) and I was talking on the phone with the writer Miss Envy.


(Can't believe I kept forgeting to put that nom. up...)

Not bad. The lineart is a bit too sketchy though. :3

By the way, if you would like to receive opinions, I'd suggest you to post it in here:

Not bad. But yeah, work on the lineart- it seems a bit sketchy. On a side note, he reminds me of Bleach.
It's a comic!

It's a nice drawing. If you were to add anything to it, you might want to make the mouth lines a bit thicker.

I actually like that sketchy style of line art.

The face looks a bit odd to me, like the mouth is positioned too low, otherwise though, it looks good.

Pretty nice. I don't mind sketchy lines, either. They can be a style choice, if you work them right. I only have a couple of VERY nitpicky comments, so feel free to disregard:

You might try varying the line weight a little more to add emphasis to things. A heavy outline is fine for pin-up style art, but what about using line weight to emphasis the folds in his hood? And it kind of bugs me that his chin line is so thick, because it's the only thing other than the outline that is. It might look less out of place if it tapered towards the end. Line weight is a thing I have a lot of trouble with, too; it's difficult to make it look effortless.

His hand is in a good position, but the first knuckle joint is a little too long given the overall size of his hand.

The coloring is great. Good fade on his chest. Seems like you know how to work those markers. ;)

You've got a good style going on.

I like the sketchy line art actually. The way the color on the jacket tranitions to white at the top looks strange to me though. Maybe the bridge of the nose could be inticated a bit more sharply. Nifty character design though.

Good stuff. Hang in there. Use a little more control with the ink lines and it'll tighten up the "sketchyness" thing.

Colors look great!

When uploading the file save it out for the web. The image is way too big for the net(1.8 mg). Your file should be a couple hundred kb at most.

Keep up the great work, and as Chuck Jones once said to me " Every artist has a certain number of bad darwings in them, the key is to do them all early" ...in otner words, practice!

Cheers!:)
