For a start, I don't wanna be nice and say good job, well done. I think you've got some work to do. It might be better if you had something to draw to give you a guide because the proportions look out of wack. I suggest you just look up some faces on the internet and just sit down for an hour practising. Hey, I just spent 2 hours then, drawing hands and arms in different positions. It's all good plus you're only 16, no sense getting discouraged when you've got 70 years left for practise. :D :farmer:

(my stirring pep talk)
 
The smudging isnt really that bad, its just mostly what eatbugs said, proportions are kinda messed up.

And I wouldnt recommend smudging either. Most of the time it makes your picture look worse than better, and it just makes your shading seem all one tint. Just my advice...

Unless you acidentally smudged it... lol. You just need to keep your hand away from the already drwn stuff.
 
It looks like one of those smudgy pictures of aliens. :O

But seriously, don't give up. Never give up. If you give up, they win. You don't want them to win, do you?

No, you don't.
 
them obviously being the biozeminades.

Yeah this is a shitty drawing, I shouldn't have posted in the first place, I think I've done much better on other drawings :P.

I think the biggest problem in this one is the shape of the head and the position ing of the eyes. The proportions of the nose to eyes to chin to mouth aren't that off (try drawing over it in photoshop), just a little awkward.

No, you don't.

What he said, Just don't give up unless of course you want them to win!

I say draw 4 pictures a day instead of 3!!
 
Pretty negative attitude to start a thread with :O

For an early attempt this isn't half bad- just remember that you'll end up drawing like me if you don't keep practising. And you don't want that, do you?

*que creepy Michael Howard-esque grin*
