what you have done in no way, shape or form means he does not what what he's talking about

@sketches they are pretty flat and choppy, once again use larger brushes and broader strokes


i was in defence mode i dont think anyone likes to be called a tracer if thay are in some sort of art work

and ya i will work on the larger brush thing but how much larger like twice as big idk

no not at all, plenty of things can indicate depth without adding any shading or color

heres an example of a dragon in line art that has forms


its not perfect but heres some things that guy is doing that you arent that is making his dimensional and yours flat

-his scales follow the forms they rest on. They wrap around his head or neck or tail for example. Your scales are a flat texture slapped on top that doesnt change.

-his posing is 3/4 while yours is strict profile, limbs come forward and backward in space indicating depth while yours is straight on

-his lines indicate shapes, they form rhythms, and straights vs curves. This is shape design and it is more advanced but huge. Take a look at your back calf for example, its like a bubble on his leg, the shape is this (), for it to be a rhythm, you must offset it. Or a straight vs curve is appealing which is like |)


hope that helps

and btw art classes in high school and art classes in general dont teach much unless you have the right teacher (which is super rare)
