Description "Ningen" is "human" in Japanese.
This is a combo picture from one of my favourite anime openings. The 4th opening of Fullmetal Alchemist is amazing. Not to mention the 1st opening and ending of Brotherhood. The words are "The future I thought I had grabbed hold of is a contradiction of dignity and freedom" which is a very rough translation of the lyrics during this scene. I took two screenshots I had gotten of this opening and combined them.
I fail at Alphonse... I truly fail.
I tried to keep the sketchy aspect of it, but the shading was just so beautiful that I couldn't resist. Of course, I probably made the shading very non-beautiful, but.....
First time I've used mechanical pencil in a while. That's why the shading is so murdered.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. I NEED CRITIQUES!!!
Fullmetal Alchemist and FMA: Brotherhood belong to Hiromu Orukawa
But this individual art piece belongs to ~Reprogrammed

I don't think you fail at Al. He actually looks better than Ed here. Anyway, keep up the good work!

Thanks! Yeah, Ed's all disproportional.

Seriously though, amazing drawing especially with Alphonso. I have been known to watch a little FMA on occasion myself

Yay! Thank you.
Both are such amazing shows. Fullmetal Alachemist and FMA: Brotherhood.
I love Greed. XD

You were selling yourself short; you are on the right track with your drawing skills! Keep at it, and you'll get there (trust me, I'm still working at it )

Lol! But at least you're still better than me!
Thank you for the comment! I'm really trying to improve.
And I thought I just completely ruined Ed's marvelous face. (This is the facial expression I was talking about that's my favourite. *sniffle* I couldn't get it right.)
Thanks so much!

Alphonse is actually surprisingly more accurately drawn than Edward; his head isn't symmetrical in terms of his face ship and on my monitor, it's too wide in proportion.

You're doing fine; you're improving your observation powers so you can later use it to make something new.

Yay! Thank you! Yeah, Ed turned out really unsymmetrical and disproportionate... That's my own little drawing quirk that I can't seem to improve: something always turns out disproportionate.
I also noticed something off about Al's head, but I figured I'd ruin it if I changed it anymore, so I left it. Thank you for pointing these out!
