That's leaps and bounds and really impressive , what do you think it is that help you improved so much ? Is there something you focused on learning or observing? Not to make this a interview or anything XD I could just use some advice.

My top three tips for improvement would probably be:
- Never. Stop. Drawing.
- Use all the references!
- Life drawing classes are great!
Seriously, I used to think that using references was cheating but umm ... how am I supposed to learn how to draw things if I don't know what they look like in real life? My art improved leaps and bounds when I started using references and took some life drawing classes! (Also I got faster). I still have a huge amount to learn but I don't think any artist is every truely happy and always wants to improve, haha.
In other news, I made an eyebrow drawing tutorial this evening. It's very light but I hope it's useful:
Folk! I have a request. I want to try my hand at some screenshot edits but my problem is that I am pretty terrible at taking screenshots. SO. If you are sitting on a particularly nice screen of your character you don't mind me potentially butchering, please feel free to send to me and I will try and knock a few out. It would be helpful if it was in as high a resolution as possible! You can just PM me an imgur link or whatever is most convienient.
Thank ye! I have a few to work on between this and tumblr so please no more for the moment!
Here's my first two edits from tumblr! I'm going to try and do one a day.
More screenshot editing. Manual paintovers HOI.
Hixxi is awesome and is a better artist than I could ever be. QQ
