Description this is how i completely ruin my linework (right image).

i went ahead and kept the actual line work on the left so everybody can see that i use them every now and then..

oh yeah, i forgot to put this back in here when i changed the pic.. MY GUN SUCKS. I KNOW. i wasnt focusing on it obviously. and no, i dont care to fix it. its character concept, not mechanical gun drawing. and yeah no trigger. kid friendly.

i destroy my lines. . basically, i do a mult layer on top of the sketch, put in some base color, then make another color dodge layer and add some highlights, then another mult for a bit of shadow.

THEN.

i merge all layers ( ) and smudge out my line work/add highlights w/ a light colored brush.

I love all her little pockets on her pants, wish i had a pair of pants with that many pockets. Because I need more storage compartments in which to loose things ^_^.

ali as painful as it is, try googling some images of weapons and draw them. like actually LOOK at it as a reference and draw it. i know that's one of your most hated things to do in the art world but if you were in an art class (and i have been believe it or not!) they would make you draw things in the class room like chairs covered in cloth/fabric, spheres, your friends faces, etc and no cartoony stuff. i hardly attended the class lmao because i didn't like to be told to draw this and only this BUT it did help some... not that i draw anymore... shit maybe you shouldn't listen to me. lol

aww she's so cute! i just love her outfit and her pose is fantastic! XD do you take art lessons or courses?

the only thing wonky is the gun but weapons are sometimes soooo painfully annoying to draw D: I have troubles so I don't look down on anyone.

maybe straighten out the lines on the gun a bit to fix it? or try referencing a bit more?

that's all i can suggest..

I really love the warm tone colouring XD nice job!
