You asked me for advice and to give an opinion on the drawings...
So here I am! I will do my best to pass on some hints.
Some basic advice...
I would keep your line work as black ink, and not bother with the hand coloured blocked-black areas.
Use good solid pigment brush or fibre nib pens for best inking results, try Zig and Copic drawing pens.
Scan your work as "line art or text" mode and you will avoid the smudged lines around the edges.
As for the art, you are definintely on the right track! Just practice on on the overall proportions and
look at what other artists are working on. Your choice of animation/game characters is a good one,
as these styles are strong and easy to understand, all that is needed is to practice the physique!
Check out "How to draw the Marvel way" book, and any of the bookstore comic anatomy books, see
how other artists do their linework, and reference their style, let it influence you, that is how to learn!
Don't trace, but try to work out their techniques, the Marvel book has tons of amazing tutorials by
the absolute masters of comic art like Ditko and Buscema! These guys have lessons to share!
For colouring, use layers in PS or whatever program, and make sure your black ink lines are scanned
sharp and with no anti-alias. Put the inks in a seperate layer about, and use a layer below to colour
the areas underneath the inks. If using tones, create another layer and so, on...
My best advice is to KEEP DRAWING! Get a good sketch pad (A4) raw a full inked character every day,
or when possible, and I can promise you will get results in a matter of weeks. Build those XP points!
Hope this was of some help.

That would have been cool XD
Although she would have certainly noticed the change off between real X and Copy X, and real X wouldn't have had as much reason to look for an honorable way to die if at least one of his friends had survived the Elf Wars/not been sealed away. Poor, poor X. ANWAY, I've gone off topic. There a lot of MMX and general MM groups you could submit your Marino pictures to c: If you need help, just check my profile page, I'm a member of a lot of them.

Don't worry to much about it, all you've done is submit a picture to a group it doesn't belong in XD; Same franchise, different series. The-Guardians-of-X is well, the Guardians of X. That's their title. They aren't his Maverick Hunter buddies, they are Reploids who were created from his data DNA to protect and serve him and humanity. The Megaman-Evolution group, on the other hand, is exactly the type of group Marino pictures belong in, because they cover all the series.

I'd work more with her head a little more. It just looks a bit squished.

Pretty good, but I feel her face is kinda too small.
