'Referencing' as I describe what you call 'reproductions'
is a good way to learn. It slowly teaches you to see shape
and how things fit together as you 'shuffle' parts to suit
what you want to do. After a while you find you know what
the parts look like and can assemble them without the
physical refernce. I have taken a few steps away from
referencing in my last few pics; all my early stuff was
based heavily on someone else's skills.
Your proportions are generally fairly good - you have
problems with the same things most of us do. Hands, faces
and feet... Keep pushing pencil - it is the only way of
progressing that I've found to work. Draw a pic, get some
feedback, repeat. :-)
Does you character have an accent or did you slip
(explotion vs explosion)?
Scrapper, Black Dragon, pleased to see furs having a go.
