>>5681039>>5681043Don't listen to either of these crabs.
1st anon is a dumbass who doesn't understand the distinction between symbol drawing and abstraction/stylization, and additionally is also fucking blind.
2nd anon is another breed of dumbass that thinks that learning fundamental skills somehow makes things less appealing, which is absolutely fucking bullshit because there is such an overwhelming amount of technically accomplished and appealing artists that could be pointed to that making such a claim is absolutely fucking ABSURD to begin with. Just because the Drawabox guy's art tends to be ugly and Proko fucked up drawing a kangaroo and a minion doesn't make fundies bad. Dipshit.
The both of you have a laughably poor understanding of what fundamental skills are in the first place. Get the fuck back in your bucket.
>>5681053not being anatomically correct doesn't mean you aren't using fundamental skills. Composition, construction, gesture, even something as simple as line control, those are fundamental skills. I honestly wouldn't even call anatomy a "fundamental skill" to begin with, since it has more to do with knowledge of subject matter than the raw skills used to create things on your canvas. With a solid grasp of construction you can draw a pretty reasonable facsimile of a human figure with only basic anatomical knowledge.
As far as I can tell your fundamentals are fine. Solidly intermediate-tier. And the drawing is pretty cute, by the way. Good style. Those frilly ruffs feel nice and crinkly. And the composition is made up of bold, clear shapes.
I did a redraw with some pointers showing the issues with the hand, and some basic tips on how to sell the gesture a little more and make the pose more dynamic. Please ignore the fact thst I, being retarded, somehow thought you drew a four fingered hand, and also by drawing the hand first and then deciding to do the rest of the figure, ended up sticking her finger in her eye.
