Vulpix? Lol that's just a fox.

I know what you did just before drawing those

Nice ones. The fox is really cool. The others are too, but for completely different reasons.

Vulpix? Lol that's just a fox.

I assumed it was a vulpix because it was next to a Wheezing and a Bulbasaur. I thought you were going for a Kanto theme.

Can I just pretend it's a vulpix? It's so much cooler that way.

[Mr. Pimpy]

Whatever floats your boat! Thanks.

Ah. Mr.Pimpy you're artwork makes me all happy inside.

Are those actually done on paper, or completely colored in photoshop? The fox looks like colored pencil, but the Pokemans could go eitherway.

[SpikeReynolds]

That fox is excellent, Pimpy.

Character profile for Kyle, the shy kid in my upcoming webcomic comedy, Anime Club.

He just looks bewildered. Not really shy.

Instead of looking at animes/manga you should look at real peoples faces and see how the mouth, ears, eyes, and face in general is twisted when certain emotions are being displayed. This varies person to person, but I guarantee you'll convey the message far better across if you use a real source.

Shy

Maybe gasping. I can see gasping to.

[SpikeReynolds]

A lot of times shy people have their faces toward you but their eyes averted. Just saying.

[Lemon]

His eyes don't look averted though. It just looks like he's in awe/gasping at something that we can't see/happening over to the left.

I know. I was giving advice. I suppose I should've worded that last post better.

[Fabbrizio]

By shy I mean timid. You know, not talking much, not being talked to. This particular picture is cut from a scene where this girl from his school's anime club starts a conversation with him (as you can tell, he really doesn't know what to say).

Also:
My best drawing ever, hands down.

Yea. Timid people don't often make eye contact.

[Fabbrizio]

Duly noted. However, there is a new picture posted.

[Lemon]

You don't need to defend yourself so much. Just take my advice as is and take from it what you will.

PowerBracelet: Lot's of stuff to critique. It may be the best thing you've ever made, but it's still not really that good. It has potential though, you've just stopped to soon. Go over your pencil lines with pen. Color it in with pencil/charcal/paint/whatever you can. Even just pen will make anything look far more "complete".

For next time, keep the following in mind as well; Action poses. While standing cool looking down with a sword is cool in that silly anime style, a character in some dynamic positioning will always be more interesting. Here, I think one leg being up a little bit, or him leaning on something would be very beneficial. If you want examples of "action poses" look at the Sistine Chapel.
