Nice manga style drawings but you can still improve. It's great how you're trying to do other things too and it looks like you're getting a good start. Manga used to be the only thing I'd draw too but for the past six months I've tried to broaden my horizons. Keep it up :)

Thankyou Jackpot ^-\\` I was hesitant to try anything but Manga Character Design, but I recently started getting into trying new things, I recently bought some watercolors so watch this space :p

Anyways, Hands have always Blighted me so I've started doing some studies, mainly copying from "Anatomy For Artists" that I have lying around Xd

Ahah, don't see many anime artists around here. I know quite a few and I came here because of the concept art. You have potential, keep up the 'I can improve!' attitude! I love that first landscape!

A few pointers, I hope you don't mind. Practice depth a little more, with faraway objects looking more faded than nearer ones, and find some references. For example, the sun is actually not yellow at all, and if it was, only at sunset, and the sky would also become yellow/orange red.

Practice anatomy; I found someone that said that manga is merely simplified anatomy, meaning you shouldn't skimp on anatomy studies/poses. Make sure your poses are plausible, as well. The one arm in this one (http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=487177&stc=1&d=1223552890) seems to have a very short forearm. Also, it'd be very uncomfortable to stand like this (http://conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=487171&stc=1&d=1223552720). ;] Hope that helps.

Poses are really hard for me to figure out though :s
But I'll keep grindin'

your costumes are pretty good, you know how clothing works pretty well. And your landscapes are really good, the waterfall one i think is the best.
