Heres my first attempt at an anime...It may look kind of plain, i based it loosely off of Kingdom Hearts Organization XIII. But without the boring coat they all usually have on.

Your shading is really good!
all I would worry about know is maybe the proportion of the character and this is a win! biggrin

His set of legs are smaller than his upper body. The hand gripping the keyblade is too smal. Other than that, I feel you'll just get better with time. The fact that you shade and add wrinkles is very ambitious of you- even making it fullbody! It won't take you long to get good. heart

Their general direction is fine, but it's the perspective of all the corners within the shoe; thats whats throwing it off. And edges of the blocks are not equal to each other. Double kisses! heart heart

Yea...I wasn't really trying to make them all perfectly equal. I would have busted out a ruler or some sort of straight-edge so i could do that. I like my drawings to have a bit of error in them on purpose, usually it mkae ths piece unique.

i see the kingdom hearts thing with the key and stuff :] the only thing i would really recomend is to fix up the boots. [they look like platform boots or something xd ] u got the form down its probably just the position or w.e. then again i really shouldnt be talking bcause i dont even bother drawing feet lol mrgreen

Weeeeell..Originally, Those 'boots' you pointed out were sandels. Like the old smaurai cool stand-on-little-pieces-of-wood sandels (Even though there only supposed to have two pieces of wood to increase balance..). Though, after i got done shading over it, it all kind of began to combine til' it's hard to see...

Very good shading, although the legs look like planks. Work on those more.

Plus you've already heard this but the legs need to be much longer (or the torso smaller).

And yeah, the hand. But you're probably tired of people pointing that out.
