Hatsuharu (Fruits Basket) colored art

Isay

I inked this with my Nikko G-pen and Deleter black ink, then colored it in with my alcohol-based Deleter Neopiko markers. I am a big fan of Fruits Basket, and Haru happens to be my favorite character. ^_^ I hope you all like this...

I really appreciate the constructive criticism that I have received on the other artworks I posted here at anime-source so I think I will be posting more of my art here regularly... Thanks, everyone! Very Happy

nicely done keep up the good work also make it seem more smooth by using smoother colors that blend together

OO~! I love the eyes! They look so elegant! Nice shading too!

The lip is jutting out a bit too far, so it kinda looks like his bottom lip is swollen or something.

A tip on blending colors to get a smoother look: if you used colored pencils, there is a type of pencil called a blender that smooths out colored pencil marks. I'm not sure how easy they are to find; I have trouble getting them myself.

overall, a great picture! Post some more!

Which is worse? The madness of following Tao, or the madness of an existence without awareness?

i like the color contrast
and most definitely the eyes but...
i dunno somehow (maybe its just me)
it looks sorta awkward.

nioe job on the coloring, not really any comments on that (im not the coloring type T.T) but the pic do seems a little odd, not trying to say its bad or try to offend you, something just seems...... off

i cant say wat, but if i find out, ill let you know, but im kind of thinking about the neck, maybe thats whats making the pic a little off, not so sure
