Okay, so I done this little drawing a little while ago...

(I don't know why the photo is big..)
It was the second thing that I've ever drawn digitally and I really don't ever draw on paper either...
I was using the touchscreen on my laptop to draw it.
So, I'm wondering what people think and if anyone has any tips on how to improve?

Thanks for any help!
 
I would say to go online to search for good artists who draw digitally and learn their tips. Honestly, I don't have the supplies to draw digitally. You could ask people that draw on this forum, etc. I would just say make your own style while you're at it.

(once again liking the guide I wrote, but I guess it's more helpful than writing a wall of text each time)

As for the drawing, I suggest studying light sources because the shadows are a bit inconsistent, also shading with more shades would be nice as well, since the drawing looks rather flat (due to scarcity of shadows + them being done with only one shade.) Also, don't shade with grey/black but use colors (learning some color theory can help you with picking nice ones)

Though, for something drawn with a touchpad, the lines look pretty solid.
