How do I make my character more realistic?
Is it possible to improve the quality of your drawn character, pulling yourself out by the bootstraps from the pit of doubt and confusion? Yes, it is.

How to make an illustration more expressive?
We present an extended feedback on one of the works made within the framework of our open test assignment. When an illustration is drawn, it always shows a part of a story. Telling a story is not easy enough, so each element of the visual narrative should be involved in what is happening in the image. You should start with a simple statement and then expand as needed.
