So here I go looking for attention again - My pencil drawings

I call bullshit on that. However the definition of what art is is something that philosophers and art snobs argue about all the time. I would classify as just about anything, and while I don't like most modern abstract art, it doesn't mean it is or isn't art. I just happen to hate it.

The cartoon drawings are pretty cool. Not a fan of the anime heads, however the animals are cool.

The human heads, well you certainly need a lot of work done for proportion. The last head is certainly the best. Just be mindful of proportions and use guidelines if you don't already.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Faces, when viewed head on, are generally five eyes apart. So if you're worried about the eyes being too big or small, just add in additional eyes along the width of the face. One eye rests between the two eyes between the nose.

Do you do any guidelines at all? Or do you mostly do outlines when drawing? If you're looking to improve your work, then definitely get some fine anatomy books. They'll aid you more than hinder you. Besides, you can always break the rules. Look at Picasso. However you should know the rules before you break them.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
