Description
I've arrived to the firm decision that I should spend less time complaining about how bad I am at drawing, and actually use that time to practice on my drawing.So I got off my lazy haunches and did just that.
So I picked Tifa Lockhart from Final Fantasy VII as my first practice sketch, and personally, I'm really proud with how it turned out. I mean, I didn't even think I'd make it this far. Just goes to show that effort is required for decent results.
Drawn in Pencil
Took over 10 hours spanned across 5 days
Any advice is much appreciated.
PLEASE NOTE!
This drawing was NOT traced.
It was SKETCHED.
This means that I attempted to draw the picture again on a separate piece of paper by looking at the original.

...The eyes look strange... And I see her boots're smaller than the originals...
That aside, I still do some of my work in the same way you did this. Nice to see you're improving!

Yeah, I realized what I did there. Thing with the eyes is that I always have problems in symmetry, so I couldn't make the curves even out. When I got to the boots, I messed up in proportion because my arm was covering the rest of the drawing XD *triplebrick'd*
Still, I don't think it turned out too bad. Thanks!

I'm not that good.
This is a sketch. I didn't draw this from my head.
But thanks.

Now that's real improvement! She looks almost perfect. Don't worry, I'm still struggling with proportions, too.

I like it, but no offense the feet are kinda tiny, other than that, Its AMAZING!

Thanks a lot, that means a lot to me.
Yeah, I was afraid I kinda messed up on the feet area. It was hard to focus on the proportion to the rest of the body.
Thanks again!

np, I'm terrible at drawing so her feet would have been ten times bigger than her head if I did it. The feet are the hardest xD
