"Ok, ok. I'm going to give you some positive criticism as a fellow anthro artist.

Well, when you draw the heads, you should always make sure they fit on the characters shoulders. One thing I noticed was that you make the heads too large for the body, and the rest of the body isn't proportionate.

The other thing, along with the proportions, is you should work on your arms and hands. The arms usually look too thin for the character, and the hands just don't seem to fit on right.

If you are willing to go out to the bookstore, you should check out "How to Draw Manga- Male Characters", that helped me so much with proportions and whatnot. I understand that manga /anime-style isn't everyones favorite but (in my opinion) the book is more simple than let's say, an anatomy book."

Dozhi posted a long post,eh?

"Also before I forget, you should check out these sites."
www.drawfurry.com
(Not many tutorials, but they are good)
www.deviantart.com
(You should join, if you haven't already, and post your pictures. You can get a lot of good critique there)
-and finally-
www.projekt-noobish.deviantart.com
(My dA. Send me a message sometime, I can't really check it or update any pictures because proxies don't really work with dA. They barely work with Gaia. *sigh*)

I know, I've always had trouble with proportions. Arms are always long and thin, hands are always just... FUBAR... Half the time, the head's too small, and half the time, the head's too big.

I always sketch from nothing, though... I can't do the whole wire-frame kinda thing...

When it comes to art, I'm a total hack, but I still think I do okay. I've certainly gotten better. I know generally, they're not that great, but still better than they were three years ago. And every once in a while, I crank one out that looks awesome. Like the one where my fursona is dancing. I think that's my best work yet.

But thank you for the input.

"I see. You really should try and do those, it's hard at first but in the end it is well worth it. Once you get drawing the frame right, all you'll have to master is drawing hands and such"

Dozhi says it's a well spent time practicing those.

"Good. I'm expecting improvement." Nods.
"Also, don't get discouraged if a picture turns out bad, just keep trying, you'll get it and develop your own style eventually."

Good. Good.
I can see that you are using the skeletons to set up the figures.
Good deal.
