(dont worry, this post is only long because i am explaining something.)

Hey, those are pretty good! The best thing I can tell you is to just keep drawing. Like, if you were to draw a picture every day for a month, you wouldnt notice a difference, until you held day one and day 30 next to eachother. You have to train your hand to know where each piece goes.

Now, I did notice a couple of things. One, you make your eyes slightly too big. I know big eyes are part of the anime style, but make sure it is in moderation. Another, when you are doing the hands, hair and face, remember that less is more. Less detail leaves more to the picture for the mind of the viewer. Yes, we want to see all of the fingers, but we dont always need the lines of the knuckles, or the indentions on the back of the hand. Finally, you seem to do a pretty good job at it, but proportions. An easy way to remember body height, is that the average adult is 7 heads tall. So, you would draw the head, then measure from crown to chin, and make the body six heads tall. For facial proportions, think in halves. Draw out your basic egg shape head. For eyes, draw about halfway from the crown to the chin. For the nose, the tip should be halfway between the eyes and the chin. And the middle line of the lips would be halfway from the nose tip to the chin. Now, the distance between a human's two eyes is the width of one eye. This is where we get the term Third Eye. :) If and when you do ears, (sometimes we dont, because hair can cover them up) the top of the ear begins at the brow line, and the bottom should reach the tip of the nose. Also, when you dont know how wide the lips should be, when looking straight forward, the average human lipspan is equal to the distance between their two pupils. Here is a picture, in case I cant explain things well (which tends to be the case in everything I do, haha):

Of course, you dont have to be exact, in fact, you shouldnt. Just close.
I apologize if any of this hurts you, but you did ask for construcitve critism. :) I myself hate my own drawings a lot of the time, so I enrolled in Art Instruction Schools. It's like 27 lessons, and in the ed you can earn up to 57 college credits. I thought I already learned allt here was to pencil drawing, but, lo and behold, I learned some new stuff, and I can see I am definately getting better. Maybe you could look into it too! It really is fun. And, the lessons cover everything from realistic animal drawing to still-life to painting to calligraphy to cartoons. Totally worth it. :) I have 6 lessons left to go! And, in the end, you get to make a portfolio of your work that you can show off to colleges you apply to, or to businesses you may want to work for.

Sorry, off topic, I shouldnt be advertising, lol. I just really dig art. :) You are good, overall! Kudos!

*soaks up information**walks like a swelled watermelon* I never thought I was good enough to ever do art classes because of me being left handed and all, it's tough for me to glide my pencil along lines since...I have to push to write and draw instead of pull or barely pull if at all if that makes sense ^^ again thank you all for your nice and very detailed compliments =3 and yes I do make big eyes, I've just always done it never knew why haha

Not good enough for art classes? You have a funny way of looking at things dear. :) Taking the class is for getting better, that is the whole point. Left handed Vs right handed makes no difference when it comes to drawing. Try starting at the right side of the paper when you draw. This way, all the lines flow toward the left. It is easier than trying to force the pencil to do something. (if that makes sense. heh... I am in a wierd mood today.) Or even, if you happen to be in a more... different mood (cant think of the damn word, lol) , try drawing with your right hand, and see what it does to the lines. It is hard to write with your not-dominant hand, but drawing is different.

I have a few other pieces I need to scan but here's one new piece ^^;;

http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t304/kikyou_2007/Evi.jpg

soe of the pieces are darker and wierd because I have to edit the gamma so the lines will show up since I don't do good with inking so those smudge marks and everything that you "See" aren't noticeable on the actual picture ^^;
