yeah those are very good, i especially love the reflection one...and hand thats holding something. but if ur lookihng for criticism, it may have been the scanner u used, but for some they seemed kinda smudged, and kinda faded, some of the lines not so defined..i'm thinkin of the foot one specifically. and there's more i could say but i'm really tired and i feel like if i say it now i'll say it wrong and it not only wont make sence but it wont be "constructive criticism" lol so for now, good job

If you were going for realism-- they are still kind of cartoony. You also need to go buy a pencil set and get some dark values in-- everything is pretty much the same medium grade.

I really like the picture of the chair...its so cute and perky looking!~ some of your pix do alot of the mid-tone thing, but it was probably the scanner?

Hehe... good stuff. I *REALLY* think you pegged it well with the picture of Caitlyn looking through the window. I've seen the original picture, and both are awesome.
The chair, as Jo said ( ), is very perky looking, but the casters and the base of it seem a little off. *shrug* Office chairs are very hard to draw, so I understand how that goes.

The hands are good! But you should concentrate more on working on your lineart than shading. You're great with shading, but it's outweighing your lineart in most of those pics.

Excellent work! Oi loiks 'em.

I would say that your chair is the best drawing of the bunch, and the "gesture" drawing to the right of it is your second best. The chair is obviously a chair, and well shaped and shaded. The "gesture" drawing is probably so well done because it's the only human based drawing in which you seem to have let yourself go, to simply draw what you see instead of worrying about how to get it right.
