You've got the clean coloring and smooth lineart down in any case! Which program do you use for this? :) I can clearly see potential in you. (Welcome to PC, by the way!)

The style somehow reminds me of another artist's. Raywind on deviantART, I think her name is. I think it's a very appealing one. However, anatomy needs a little work here. Most notably the hands which sometimes turn out to be both right or both left. I'm not sure what to make of Rayman's left hand in the second image. While Dark Rayman's are done the right way. In the first drawing Rayman's fists look very odd. On his right hand, is the top finger his thumb? It's difficult to notice it which makes it almost seem like his hand is missing a thumb. His other fist is simply angled wrong. Try to rotate it so the knuckles point more downwards rather than up. When drawing hands, here's a protip: When feeling lost, take a good look at your own hands for a while. Position them how you would want them in your drawing and see where the thumb goes.

Next up, I would like to point out the shoes are a tad large by proportion. They only require to be a tad smaller. In drawing no.1, the one in the back is perfect if you don't take perspective into count. Try to aim for this size.

For now I don't see anything else that could require some improvement. Just keep practicing! :)

Thanks. The basic program i use is just microsoft paint,and maybe a little with pencil and pen if im not on the internet.Im getting used to practicing with a basic structure before i start adding the final detail now.And i think it really helps keep everything balanced and even with the rest of the body.And hands are the ones i stuggle with most :(

but for the most part,I thank you for the helpful tips :)
