Here is in my opinion my best drawing in full color pencil finish. Hope you guys like it and can keep giving me constructive criticism on it

Hey Onion i see what you mean it seems to create smoother lines and lighter with the shoulder technique ^^ it feels awkward at first but i think ill pick up on it if i keep practicing every day thanks again

The circles aren't circular enough. When you draw circles, draw them moving your shoulder instead of your wrist. Lightly move your pencil around in circles, and try to make it as close to a perfect circle as possible. Practice this by drawing multiple circles of different sizes on a separate sheet of paper.

 

For finding the center of the face, you have to find the center of the head first. Lightly draw a 2d cross, with the horizontal line coming from where the neck touches the head, ending at the top of the head. The vertical cross should be touching the sides of the circle, and on an angle 90 degrees from the horizontal line. Drawing from your shoulder, draw a two ovals, with the narrow ends of them touching the ends of the cross. This should give you a 3d sphere with two rings wrapped around it.

 

If drawing the eyes in proportion to one another is too hard with the shoulder drawing technique, block them out first. Draw two rectangular planes where the eyes should be, and put the eyes in them. Using boxes and planes can make it easier to draw things with proper proportion, or foreshortening. 

 

You might also want to draw more loosely. I don't necessarily mean draw lighter (although that wouldn't hurt). I mean focus less on getting it perfect line for line, and more on making visually appealing C and S curves.

 

Also, I can't stress this enough, DRAW THROUGH! I know you shouldn't see through your character in your finished drawing, but this is your rough. Always draw through, to make adding volume easier. Only draw what you see when you're doing the cleanup.

 

Oh yeah, and always use references. I'm assuming you used references for this, but I'm still telling you just in case. Don't draw real things from memory, or people will wonder what you were on to think trees look like cotton candy.

Thank you for the tips space onion ill try to keep practicing with the methods you suggest and then maybe show you some more so you can tell me if i improved. Thank you all.

Heck ya when i first rented spirited away from a pop video i watched it like 10 times before taking it back lol.

I'm trying to practice sketching two hours every day cuz i want to bring some really good pieces to Brony Con to show off so i need all the practice and all the tips i can get.

I'd like to state the fact that usually when i draw i look off an image and draw it as accurately as possible which is what i did with all the drawings if posted. I'm starting to try and sketch more so i can develop my own style for drawing and was wondering whats the best way to approach this so any tips would be greatly appreciated thank you Attached are some photos of sketching i have done today its all mainly practice and nothing real yet. check them and let me know what techniques i should use thank you all my friends.

I want to work more on bigger picture prodjects. Who should i draw next guys.. Oh and I just need to color my celestia too so expect that photo soon.

How long did it take to draw that? Looks awesome btw.

Today's daily drawing post is a personal favorite Derpy *insert flutter shy yay here* hope you like it. Attached file is a bigger view of the drawing. 

Is there a maximum for how big the image can be cuz if i can i'll post them a little larger for you guys and im always open to kind remarks and creative criticisms.

im allways insecure about drawing the nose and mouth,  but have you done luna?

no i haven't but i'll make sure i draw as many ponies and other images as possible.

I chose 9 manely because i rather enjoy the sprite art however i guess it does seem alittle cramped in some areas but overall looks perty dang good and definately nothing short of creative.

I'll post one a day need to keep up with my drawing and this site is good motivation for me so be patient there is more to come.

to answer your question flutersparkle these drawings were pre drawn by me of which i have more but im choosing to only post one a day.
