Description
First off can someone please tell me if they can see what's off about this one? Cause I freakin can't...I wanted to turn back to traditional art again, I felt like it. Decided to try properly using pencils to draw something. Not the best, but for a first try I'm pretty satisfied. Drew a xeno cause they're the easiest for me to draw
This is like the worst description I've written...

First, sorry that it took me so long to comment on your drawing.
One reason it that's I just can't find out what's wrong here. I mean, anatomy is really OK (from what little I know of xenos), and well, you're so used to draw them that you capture them really well. [OK for his too thin right leg, but it goes sketchy in that part]
Perhaps it's the technique per se you're ill-at-ease with? But from what I see, the shading is good, no problem here.
Perhaps you would like something with more neat contour, somethink less sketchy? You might want to use a harder pencil, and use the less hard ones (2B and more) only for the darkest areas?
Grrr I've the feeling I'm of no help here O_o

No worries, it's fine
Honestly, yes, I do prefer the more cartoony look than this one. But I felt like trying it out. I never actually thaught of it; I was using 4B and 2B for the whole thing. Next time I'll try it this way
Thank you so much for the advice

Oh yes, 2B and 4B certainly explain much ^^ You should use 3H for the initial sketch and then use 2B for shadowing. And 4B if you want for darkests parts ^^
You're welcome

I looks pretty great!^^
I like the way you made the background
But I think the left leg (from our perspective) is a bit thin
unless it's supposed to be like that

Thanks!
Yeah, both legs came out thinner than intended. On the sketch they were good, but I kinda fucked up the shading and the smoke effect... yeaaah... aside from that, can you see anything else that is off? The xeno looks weird to me and I can't seem to find the mistake

Well the top half looks completely fine to me
But I think it's the lower half that is a bit off
I think the abdomen part is a bit thin tooΒ

Aw hell... you're right, thanks. Should've watched out for that. Ya got no idea how oftem it happens to me, but I usually notice it when I'm still sketching. This time I obviously failed to do so. Thanks again, now I'll be able to sleep tonight
