hi I find your artwork tanks to ProjectComment
(before you read this comment I just wanted to apologize for bad english)
the style you used for this artwork is really charming and the black and retro style colror style that you used gives to this pice a cartoony fell. Nevertheless the lack of a proper undestanding of anatomy ruins the artwork, her body,especially looks weird, her face is misproportioned,her eyes are too big and too close to each other that they almost occupy the whole head,also the arms and legs are too bendy.even if this you are trying to make a cartoony style you need to undestand a least how the basics of anatomy works first in order for your pice too look correct.the best ways to fix (inprove) this are to, of corse keep praticing by trying to draw the same pose multiple times untyl it looks polished,also looking at some references can help you inprove.
I really hope that you find this comment usefull and you will keep improving.

all of these are stylistic choices. I do need to improve on anatomy but I don't need to change my entire style first. I am aware of the basics of it (and I still need to work on some things) so my artstyle is justified. Hopefully though next semester in school I can get an art class so I can fix the things that need fixed but like
eyes are my style. noodly arms and legs are a part of my style. literally everything about the way the proportions look is something I chose to do. I hate the style excuse as much anyone else but it's important to know some of them really aren't mistakes. my older art didn't look like this, and I didn't always have the artstyle. It's something I developed as I learned and understood more things, not something I'm using to keep myself from improving
thanks though. I guess

I quite enjoy the black and white on this piece. It gives it a darker feeling, like the lack of emotion, fitting into the edgy older Tech theme you are going for. It feels like she is leaning against the no parking post just to be standing there. Not waiting for anyone per se, but taking a weight off her legs. She doesn't seem to be looking directly at the viewer, but more something out of sight, or even the ground. As if she is keeping to herself, one may even see a slight guilt in her expression perhaps because of her actions, as she may have that slight rebellion but maybe she has some remorse for these actions?
However, I do believe that the perspective may need some adjustments. When looking at the sidewalk, it seems to be moving away, however, the sign is flat against the viewer. It is a large contrast with the background's given perspective. www.kisspng.com/png-traffic-si… This image may help with the perspective of the sign. With Tech herself the strings on her hoody should be more to the right, as in their current location it seems like the hoody is twisted around uncomfortably, the pocket on the hoody should also be more to the right. i2-prod.leicestermercury.co.uk… These guys are wearing hoodies in about the same angle she seems to be in.
Lastly, in her pose, more of her upper arm should be against the pole if she is supposed to be leaning on it. Currently, it looks as if her elbow or lower arm is against the pole. I would recommend putting more of her upper arm, or shoulder against the pole. For a good visual of this, go into a doorway, and lean against the frame with your elbow or lower arm, then move your hand to your mouth as if you had a cigarette, you will notice your entire body moves, and it isn't very comfortable. If you move so it's against your shoulder you'll notice its a lot more comfortable, and easier to remain in the position for a longer time.
Overall I do love your cartoony style!
