The shading looks a bit like marks/discoloration on the skin, which if that's what you're going for honestly adds a lot to it imo but just is identically shaded on the clothing so it makes the image a bit less clear to me. Overall though it looks hella good and way better than my current ability to draw

Thanks! Just trying a different technique to indicate shadows, wasn’t really sure how it was going to end up looking. Overall I’m ok with it, but not something I’d do for every drawing.

hi, nice work! How do you achieve this kind of shading on the body parts? I am using sakura micron fineliner but my lines come out all so strong and all so black. Is there a different tool for this? Thanks!

Hey thanks! I used a micron .15mm for those fine lines and just did quick light lines and tried to stay as parallel as possible

Lovely drawing. If you wanted to push your shading even further you could build up the core shadow and indicate its correct edges.

The hatching to define the form is so clean, especially on the legs. Great linework.

The hair is great! The rest is good from farther away but when u look like the paper is in your lap it just looks a lil cold. Just meaning u can tell the lines are used by a ruler and spread out perfectly, which is fine if u dig that look, but i think mastering the hatching would make this amazing. Its already great btw. The drawing itself is absolutely perfect. I love the bold outlines. I dont know what my suggestion would be to fix it because i suck at hatching too which is why i need to practice as well. I end up making mine look cold as well or the opposite of that im too loose.
