I'm glad that you're getting good at tracing, because references are important, but try using a reference picture and tracing that, then adding some other stuff to make it look like an OC, I have a couple of references I got off Pinterest that I use that you can use

And you can always tweak it so it's not in this art style, you normally want to do that so it's not as copied, I normally make mine in the anime style.

Well, I really basic way would be to use the reference and add more pronounced joints, I'll add a pic with what I mean in a second, you can also change the positioning of the head or to different hand positions

Kk, so now what u can do is you can put the heads in different positions and make them look a different way, you can also make the circles where the joints are like I mentioned, to give it more depth, kind of like in the picture below

U could, but it wouldn't really be ur art style, and yes the point of a reference is to have a similar position to the reference, but if you don't tweak it a little bit it'll look like the same thing but just if the person that made the reference were to color it a little bit and add accessories

#

Also here's the other half

#

Do you see how I change the position of the leg and made the stomach a little bit more like a stomach, I also change the position of the finger to match the other finger gun and I pushed the head down making it look like it's laying on the floor

I figured ur a newbie :3 and tracing is pretty good when you are, it gives you a better perspective of certain ideas and how things are positioned

#

And it looks pretty good!

#

But I would recommend instead of doing solid lines, do the stroke technique where you do multiple different lines at a time

#

It can make it a look a little bit less shaky and more smooth. Are you on a PC tablet or phone or a drawing tablet of some sort?

Regular tablet

#

Without a pen

Lookin' good 👍 I have a drawing tablet for more detailed sketches, but right now I'm just using a normal tablet to do drawings like these.
