Hi, everyone!
I would just like to know if art like this will sell at all. I only know one style and I'm still learning, so any help and constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated. ^-^

Of course, I won't be taking on commissions until the end of my semester because things are really hectic right now.. ^^; But should you like to have a dragon or two drawn by me, feel free to tell me and I'll keep your requests in mind. ^-^
Do ping me so I can see your comments. Thank you! ^-^

PhoenixMiko I think it would, but don't be discouraged if you don't get a lot of interest! Art is quite hard to sell here sometimes. I especially like the second picture! (what a dynamic pose!)
My only critiques is to make sure you're filling in the entire thing while colouring (it's most obvious in the 3rd pic that you missed some spots!) and maybe spend a bit more time on backgrounds if you're going to include them in commissions!

PhoenixMiko Yeah, I think that this could definitely sell on this site! You've got a pretty nice style; the anime influence is obvious here, but you can see your own sense of style.
I'd say that you should experiment with more dynamic poses? The second photo you posted (of the woman with the sword) is definitely the most appealing of the bunch. While you have a great understanding of anatomy, it can get a touch wonky in places (such as the face of the woman in the last photo or the hands in the second), but that can definitely be fixed with more practice.
For practice, I think it would help you to draw some different body types or facial styles. Overall, great work!

I don't mind if it'll be hard to sell at first. ^-^ I want to do a lot of things on this site but taking it slow would be most ideal. Plus, it'll give me time to adjust since I'm very new at this. Lol. ^^;
I'll make sure to practice the backgrounds. I completely agree that they need more work. ^^;

My anatomy is more or less acceptable, but I do agree that hands and sometimes legs are the hardest to draw. ^^; I just never know where to put them! ^^;
I'll make sure to take your advice about practicing with different facial styles and body types! ^-^
Both:
Thank you so much for your encouraging words and helpful advice. I admit that I won't be able to improve immediately, but I promise to work on all my weak points! ^-^ I appreciate the time and effort you took to point them out to me! ^-^
I hope you both have a great day! ^-^
