I know your comments old and I know this [probably] isn't related to what you said but if I ever draw a perfect circle I don't use it to make a character cuz I praise that circle

[@cozie8806]

My problem is when I draw girls they look too smol. And when I draw boys they look too big. So when I draw both on one page, the boy looks like the sun and the girl looks like Mercury.

For me is the opposite

Wow your tutorials are so easy to understand! I really like what you said at the beginning, that this is how you draw a male character. I hope there will be a second video about females, though I think males are harder to sketch than females, or is it just me :v You are talented and I don't really understand why you're studying art and not illustration. I'm waiting for the next video :)

Now that I know more about body proportion thanks to you, I feel like I can accomplish my drawing better if I just measured! Thank you once again! I want to be a manga artist when I grow up, or book cover illustrator. At least something with manga and anime. And your videos act as some coach to me, at least, that's what I think of them myself. Thanks for showing us how to do things step by step!
