Draw this Again

I posed one of these about a year ago with the same character. Obviously, it isn't the exact same drawing and pose from year to year. I like the direction I'm heading. I wanted him to actually look intimidating this time around. Also, my shading, poses and anatomy seem stronger over all. Not to mention, this one actually has a background.

Ok, time for the little speech thing I give every time I upload one of these. I know progress seems slow and there are moments where you forget why you draw at all. Just remember, improvement happens naturally. Slowly, there will be little things that you pick at until you like the result just a little bit more. Not every drawing will be a masterpiece. You just have to keep it up and keep doing what you love.
