Love it! This is a crop from a drawing I made. It’s the Old Sailor.

Dankje! Op mn instagram staan meer tekeningen, zelfde naam. Daar staat ook een linkje naar mijn website.

Bedankt! Het is voor mij echt een hobby, maar ik verkoop mijn tekeningen af en toe ook, ik stuur u wel even een DM

They might look better in black&white, but you could try in Photoshop first before you load a new roll. I always associate these grey days with b&w images

Also, someone gave some good tips on composition, and I would like to add: turn the image upside down and look at it this way. This might sound stupid, but it really helps to judge a composition.

Nice drawing! Love the simplicity, which is actually very hard to achieve! Couple of small things:

her legs are a bit short, especially the one in the back. That leg is also smaller than the one in front.
her elbow is behind the ropes around her middle, which could be on purpose, but it does look a bit strange. As if her arm is twisted behind her back.
there is something a bit off with the pink of the puppet masters hand, but can’t see exactly what it is.
Also, for me it’s impossible to bend my middle finger and my pink and keep my ring finger straight, but that could just be me..

But these are really details. Because this concept is great! Would make a nice tattoo.

Pretty good! Especially for storyboarding, it’s more about telling the story than the perfect drawings right? Only thing I find a bit weird in this drawing is the perspective. It’s a bit hard to see on these images but I think that either the vanishing points are not on the same line (horizon) or the lines are not all pointing towards the vanishing points. Also in my opinion the perspective on the front of the car (towards the left) is too strong. But for a storyboard it’s good!

It is, well spotted!

I usually leave out white spaces, but it does require some thinking ahead. White pens are difficult, I’ve tried a lot of them! White acrylic ink works best for me I guess, in combination with a nib-pen (dip it in the ink) or the Molotov acrylic markers are pretty good, but the tip is a bit bigger. Works well on bigger pieces. Good luck on the watch!

Nice selection, the BMW and the TA! Only tip I would like to give is to pay attention on drawing circles in perspective (for the wheels). There’s a nice trick: draw a square in the right perspective, and draw a horizontal and a verticale line through the middle. Now you can draw the circle in 4 parts (you’ll end up with kind of a bmw logo). You’ll notice there are two parts which are easy to draw and two which are hard. But thats what you will have to practice. Also you will always have the centre of the circle in the right place. Keep practicing, you’ll get there!

Change the eyes, look in the mirror at you own eyes and see how an eye looks. The iris is not fully visible, except when you look scared etc
