(Part 2) Top products from r/katawashoujo

I don't really have the time to do a fully fledged critique right now, but the most prominent issue to me is your line work. It's very chicken-scratchy and not confident. The quality of line is what separates okay artists from great artists, and you will be able to sketch a LOT quicker once you get better at it.

This reddit has some great resources and lessons

It's by a guy who did lessons with a well known artist at CDA (Concept Design Academy), this guy is a freaking genius and I can only hope to even scratch the surface of his ability!

The owner of this sub also recommends this book - Which I'm sure you can get in a more illegitimate manner, but it's fantastic and a must-have for any budding artist.

I want to recommend this to /u/Anagram-Daine, too, if he's here at all.

As a final note, this video on line weights is great, too.

Line weight can really help establish forms in your work without needing to add value, and being able to think in 3D forms can help a lot. The idea behind this is that you simplify everything you see into primitive shapes, such as boxes, spheres, cylinders and cones. All of these shapes can be warped, distorted and bent to form anything you can possibly think of, so being able to know these shapes and how light would pass over them will give you the ability to draw ANYTHING, should you know what it looks like.

Have fun!

These two might be good, but I can't really speak from personal experience.

Saw them on a Chess.com beginner recommendation list or something like that.

Ah, I can see how that might cause a few problems.

I'm surprised that they hadn't considered something like this during the development cycle. I have been reading a book on Indie Game Development and it covers most of the questions that you just asked over the course of three or four chapters and repeatedly emphasizes the point to work these details out, and have people sign paperwork if necessary, before shipping the product, free or otherwise.

I ordered this one I should it Tuesday, I only had to pay shipping because Amazon gave me a $15 promo code because my copy of Fire Emblem Fates Special edition came late from them

But you should check out everyone's Twitter (from the Stalker's gudie).

A lot of the writers/artists have Ask.FM accounts or Pateron accounts in their Twitter description

Here are a few of the artworks of Hanako that I think resemble Mikasa a bit. This one especially.

And just for kicks, here's a picture of Lilly that reminds me of I think Annie. It's been a while since I've watched SnK and I haven't been keeping up with the manga so I've forgotten a lot of the characters.

I also have this picture of Miki that reminds me a lot of Ayanami Rei from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Just cause I'm looking through Katawa Shoujo artwork where characters resemble other characters.
