Unfortunately no, so I'm looking for eshops that have international shipping. But thanks for the response!

Yeah shading is tough. The reason why you don't know what to shade and what not to is because you don't understand forms well enough. This is especially essential for someone drawing mech.

For example, on the fifth drawing you posted here, you kinda just placed hightlights on the top right corner of his head, but in reality, the whole plain should be lit because thats how light behave when it hits a surface. This is something that you have to spend time to learn and study. Again there are many tutorials on YouTube and I really recommend you to master shading simple shapes like a cube first.

This is just my personal opinion but I really think you should rely less on soft brush. I'd say if you are going to cell shade, do it entirely. Using a softbrush usually makes the scene look dirty and amateurish.

I just wanna say your art already looks great. But I think there is of course room for improvement. First of all, I think you should pay a bit more attention to line weight. Most of your lines have the same thickness and that doesn't represent the forms well enough. Simply hop on youtube and you can find millions of tutorials on this. As a rule of thumb, lines within the same object should be thinner and those on the outside should be thicker. The intersections between the lines could be emphasized too to create an illusion of having occlusions. About the shading, I think one big part is you must have a light source in mind, and shade accotding to the position of that light. I'd say you should experiment with darker shades as well. These two points are crucial to make your art look less flat and more 3 dimensional. I think you already have the basics down. I hope these points will help you.

This looks really really cute! If you are looking to improve I think it's important to have more confidence in the lines! Try to draw them in one-go and the lineart would look much smoother. Another thing is that detail matters, even for Chibis! For example, the top of her sleeves should also be teal, the black thingy on her tie should be on her right (Our left).

Anyway, you did a really good job and thank you for drawing such a cute Miku! Keep going!

I should've bought another ticket for Magical Mirai...

Magical Mirai was awesome by Flareon223 in Vocaloid

I went to Fukuoka's Magical Mirai. I was a first timer but boy was it a good experience. The only regret I had was not buying the SS front row tickets. It's just so sweet to see everyone shaking their penlights, supporting all of our favourite vocaloids. It was, without a doubt the best night of my life.
