I didn't have a picture reference handy, I know I got Al completely wrong, both of them, and the fact that I only had a pen made it so I couldn't erase anything.. I hate drawing in pen, but there you have it. I swore long ago I would never try something so complex... guess that didn't last too long.

Anyway, here's my one and only piece of FMA art. I'n not that good at people or inanimate objects; my real experience lies in drawing creatures. This isn't the best example of my work, but....

Oh yeah! It's dark because I took a photo of it. I don't have a scanner.

Actually it does not look that bad. You drew the Tin can al pretty good. The only real problem that stands out to me is human Alphose lips. You could have drawn them a bit smaller. Other than that you did a pretty good job.

I don't blame you...I HATE drawing with pens, and I don't have a scanner, so I take pictures of my work.

It is not that bad, and you say that you DIDN'T have a pic reference, that is AWSOME! I can't draw CRAP without a reference. All that I DO draw comes in whole, or parts of original pictures.

Overall, its pretty good. ;) Keep it up!

Thanks. When I finally managed to compare it with a picture the next morning, it depressed me. I know that if I had managed somehow to use a ref, it would’ve been so much better. Anyways, thanks for the comments. ^.^;

really good
