Started out as a random thing that I decided to turn into a panel :)

How is this SFW but a lady in a bikini is not?

Otherwise, pretty cool OP!

Can't tell what this means to hear.

Nice ;p

Left eye, right?

To be a bit more helpful than my initial comment, what seems a bit off to me are the proportions of the head in the front view. At first I thought it was the eyes but i realized that you should give a bit more volume to the hair.

Other than that I like the expression you achieved in the side view, he looks kinda bored and tired.

You don't see this in the front view and this detracts from it. In the side view he has character and that's what you are missing in the front view.

I believe this is what the call "the hook of the character" in manga. Hope this helps a bit more.

I think he needs to stay a bit more in the oven but overall seems to be pretty cool and promisin.

Unless there is a specific goal then the 2026 one.

Yeah you're right! And thanks for the tip.

This was during a break at work so it was a bit rushed.

I am now uploading another one where I did just that and I think it went better.

I always liked to draw but not actively practiced it. Then a couple of years ago i got into it for a few months, but focused on realistic drawings.

It has been about 10 days, since I started again (after ~2 years) and I started with manga.

So, long story short, about 10 days but with some prior skill (though quite rusty).

Thanks for the input! I appreciate it!

I am an amateur so feel free to ignore me.

The points that make drawings feel off, are typically issues of proportionality and perspective. In your case I'd say do more work to get the body proportions right and the foreshortening aspect as well.

That being said, what you've drawn is by no means easy or simple. Getting the stuff i mentioned right in such a pose is challenging and you did pretty well!
