From what I see the only improvement you need. Is to actually draw something.

Re: suggestions on improving my sketches

your drawings are very good, but some things are a little off. make sure to use referance pics.

you put pictures in the thread by either clicking the button with a mountain and a circle thing(at least that's what it looks like to me) on the yellow background. it's right above the text box when you start a new thread or click "go advanced". it's right next to the globe with the sideways 8. lol...

or i think you can go [img]picture url here[/img].

Your drawings looks quite good indeed, even if, as G00ey pointed it out, some parts are a bit off balance, also the drawing seem a bit blurred all over. Last remark the uploaded pictures are really small to really appreciate it which is a shame as they seem nice.

Re: suggestions on improving my sketches

thatnk you for your comments. i'll take your advice. i shall try and make them bigger and scan them rather than take a photo. i relly need an A3 scanner and haven't access to one at the mo. i'll keep practising. quite like my corvette. got a thing for the old muscle car

Re: suggestions on improving my sketches

the work is good.

If anything I would suggest you sketch without a purpose. I noticed many more finished areas which could be a style choice I understand but the entire thought of the sketch didn't get fufilled. In your sketch think about attitude and stance. See if you can read your thoughts between the lines when you're done. You'll find that you will be able to recall the finest details about what was going on in your mind while you were sketching...that's the biggest thrill for me.

Keep it up...nice work.
