I feel a bit better now after a day or two about this issue. I'm so much like a child...always complaining, whining, and sulking ^^;.
Thank you so much for the nice comments you guys inputed. It really did help out and make me a bit less sulky. Sorry I didn't reply to any of them >,< I'm a bit crammed with work from precollege so I'm just editing this entry.

Much of my realism still looks very semi and I'm really shaky with proportions and alignments, but I can fix them with references.
As for anime, I don't know if I will stop
