Nice stuff!! Really impressive!!! I always feel that my drawings smudge and get too messy. Do you have any tips on how I can keep my drawings clean so that I can be more comfortable adding detail?

Thanks! :D yeah well, One way to do it is, get a semi tight pencil sketch, then Lightly erase it with a kneeded eraser. Then start in the upper right (if your left handed) or the upper left (for right hander) and render the picture in a diagonal line to the opposite corner! Thats how I usually do it. OR I just get a large sturdy ruler or paintbrush and hold one end, with the other end resting off the page, and use the brush as a bridge to rest my hand. Its a painting thing, but it works just as well!

Then there is the old sheet of paper trick, where you just fold a sheet of paper and place it under your hand when you draw. But it never seems to work for me. lol

No problem! well I usually get an idea of where I want the characters, then how I want the background oriented. Then I Finish the characters, then the background. So characters I suppose! BUT If I have a really tight presketch, I will just work from the upper right corner to the lower left so that I don't smear it a bunch(im left handed). But that's usually only when I do sequential art.
