Tried drawing long hair and clothe creases, please give tips and tricks.
Why is long hair so hard to draw? ;u;

These are super cute! I usually let my pencil/stylus flow when drawing long hair. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.
The clothing creases look nice! Much better than what I usually do, heh.
Am I to critique the faces? I have plenty of tips to share, although you only requested critique on clothing creases and long hair.

Feel free to~
Although, I sorta got lazy on the girl's face. xD
 
Cute. Try going for cleaner lines maybe? Eyes are off and necks are a bit big. But keep drawing! It's cute already. What more if you keep practicing eh?

Awh, thankies~
The neck bugs me to, but I didn't feel like changing the shoulders to fix it cause then I'd have to redraw a portion of the wicked hair. *shudders*
Cleaner lines? Gotcha, I'll try that next time! x3
Can't tell how I would position the eyes any better, less it's not just that, but also the way the eye looks, hmm~
 
I also let the pencil flow when drawing long hair!
I really like the wrinkles on the clothes those are nicely done!
The faces look a bit off but justbtry your best to even them out and keep practicing because these are adorable!

hey! you're art is good, and you're gonna be a really great artist! my style of drawing is more cartoonish, so i rarely find myself in a situation where i need to draw clothing wrinkles. and i'm not quite sure how to explain how i draw long hair. (however, i livestream often so if you would like to watch me do it, that'd be awesome!) but could i make suggestion about the chibi drawing you did? i would try making the neck smaller. it looks disproportionate compared to the other limbs. i did a somewhat chibi style drawing just yesterday, if you want to see an example! [here]
 
- clothing creases are better that some, but they don't follow that natural "fall" when worn. They look pointy and sharp on yours.
-the faces ;A; the eyes are too close to each other o.e Overall face structure needs some work as well. and omg i used to draw my eyes like that too ;A; (like rectangles lol)
-It seems like you're holding your pencil to stiff, the lines look rough and jagged. Study how real long hair flows.
-shading needs work as well. Personally, i hold my pencil "lightly" and try to be free with my strokes. i think that might help with your issue of long hair and creases.
-the neck is too uh thick? i suppose? yea
-you're on a good track with practicing the clothing creases and such, good luck!

; u ; Thankies, RiRi.
I can't help holding my pencil stiffly, it's how I always draw.
But I'll try being my gentle on the grip for hair,
Thank you for being so thorough!

omg you could try pretending that your pencil has splinters, and that will make it easier to hold it lightly xD (i do that with chopsticks o.e) npnp
