What type of style are you aiming for? Who are your favorite artists? It's hard to critique without knowing what direction you want your advice to send you.

This helicopter looks beautiful, may I ask where did you learn to draw perspective in such a clean yet complicated fashion?

I don't know if this serves as a good critique or not but I feel that you might have added too much skin to the hand which removes the focus a bit too much from the joints, you might need to make the joints pop out a bit more and I guess the index finger is looking a bit wonky, maybe it's the last 2 bones on the edge one seems a bit longer than it should be (middle bone) and the other seems a bit shorter, I think the image or reference could have messed you up because part of the structure of the finger was lost in the shadow and that dark background.

I think the structure on these torsos are really nice and most of them look really decent I guess if you want more expression in your forms try to imagine each section of the body more as basic shapes so that you can be more expressive in terms of foreshortening and having bolder moves with each decision, A good book to help find these simple shapes is George Bridgman's Drawing from Life, Watts Atelier has a book about Bridgman but you can just look at Bridgman directly if you want and also last bit which I'm personally kinda confused about and you don't really have to listen to but should the scapula be a bit larger in terms of proportion or am I just imagining things?

Quick sketch seems pretty decent I think what would you might've missed in this quick sketch is the foreshortening of the forearm in that bottom figure as well as the foreshortening of their upper arm which fused with the back. Also, it may be helpful on your next quick sketch to figure out the general positioning of legs, and also you may have gotten the rhythms of the upper body on the top figure a bit wrong I think you might need to invert the S curve but keep that overall silhouette. Good luck with your future studies and I hope you improve as an artist!

In general the comic seems pretty decent, what I would fix in general is the proportions for hands and the arms they seem a bit stretched at certain points so that they could fit the panel, also I think in terms of perspective it would be better to show differing perspectives of each character talking or have them take up the panel in ways that characterize the conversation so that even when you squint or look from far away you are able to tell which character is speaking and what emotion they are conveying. I think the best panel in your comic that helps portray this is the second one or top right panel, the composition looks really nice on that one.

I think what helps a lot with gesture is to learn to keep it lose and knowing the basic shapes of not just the main parts but smaller parts as well, if you want some really good tips I suggest George Bridgman's drawing from life the first few pages really help a lot with things like gesture, and then building upon that gesture also requires a bit more anatomy knowledge but don't worry these things will come if you constantly practice on them. If you can't find the book the next thing you can do is the Proko course.

In terms of critique iI think it would help to look at values for example in this specific painting while you have your shadows correctly cast there isn't a clear light source being defined in the shading and I think you may need more shadow on the right side of the face some portrait studies you could do is looking at Rembrandt and see how he does his shadows a specific portrait that may help would be the one specifically titled "Self-Portrait with Velvet Beret" it features a similar light source and even though the style may not look like similar to your portrait the basic concepts of values still apply. Also, I'm not sure who the YouTuber is I'm gonna guess is it HasanAbi?

Any thoughts?

Hi Jon and hi everyone, totally excited about this art community thing. I really struggle with color, value and rendering to a specific level. Any advice, Tipp, Tutorial or whatever are totally welcome, please help, kiss kiss and much love!
