showing your work could help, even if your not satisfied. Just gives us a better idea of what we're looking at :rendered:

You want better line quality in you drawings? then you need to practice drawing lines. Simply just draw 100's of lines... some of them with different lines weights, going from thick to thin, drawing them straight, and drawing them with confidence. That way once you got your drawing, you lines look crisp and clean.... at least that helps me.

yea sodomizer is right..


what do u need to draw lines ? :P
u may say a pencil.. and a paper sheet.. but.. u need a hand .. and thats it.. u need to train ur hand to make smooth movement .. rolling lines like these when u draw a sphere or a sinus courve.. i trained my hand to draw stuff to the right and left.. like a face i had lotsa problems with this.. well.. my hand had these problems.. .. my rolling lines coming from my wrist ..i slightly shake.. or move my arm and let my wrist sway ..

i used to draw hair in the wind for this..

u cann see the results in my sketchbook * its the mind matrix*

would be great if u can show some of your stuff here

To get clean lines, you must draw confidently in easy flowing strokes. For this, you need to:

- master the basics of line drawing. Practise drawing lines vertically, horizatally, at an angle and basic geometric shapes.

- have good hand eye (mind) coordination. Practse contour drawing as discussed in this article:
