Cool I think the cybernetic parts look good.

Thank you. I thought so as well. I just like getting anothers opinion. <33

Your anatomy is looking pretty good, but it looks like you have a pretty shakey hand for lining your drawings. What I suggest is that you go over a few of the lines again--not all of them, and not the whole lines, though! Look at some other drawings of people that use ink. You'll probably notice that their lines variate in how thick and thing they are--it makes the line more beautiful, and it is easier to do than just one tiny little thin line.

Other than that, I suggest that if you're going for flat colours, you either try acrylic or (easier) try it digitally! It's really easy to lay down a flat colour over nice inked lines. If you want to stick with coloured pencils, don't pretty down so hard and just go over it a lot of times so you don't have those lines showing up. It looks like you did it pretty successfully on her non-mechanical leg.

Hope my critiques helped a bit! (: As far as the cybernetics go...maybe put metal rings around where the tubes connect to other parts. Sorry I can't be more help in that field. Good luck!

don't press so hard with the pencils, not "don't pretty down so hard", hahaha. Sorry, typo. xP

They are Prisma Pencils....and I did ink. With Sakura Microns 3, 5 and 8 gage.
It's not tat my hand it shake...it's just that I suck ate inking.
I dislike Digital coloring, because I can't do it...or in essence...I like doing pencil and paper.
I'm allergic to most acrillyc.

Thanks for your comments. :3

Ouch; allergic to acrylic? I'd cry...or bask in the hives.

And yeah I could tell that you inked--I had the same problem with inking drawings for a long time. The lines looked kind of wobbly, and I hated inking by hand because it made my picture look worse compared to the pencil drawing. The advice I gave on inking I think is pretty sound, because getting a line perfect with one pass is pretty difficult. With the line variation I didn't mean necessarily using different sized nibs, but like, if you look at your icon you can see what I mean--it's really subtle in a lot of the parts, but the thickness of the line changes (most notable is the bottom line of the eye).

Aye. I am probably going to start digital inking.
It looks cleaner...but I find that when I do digital work....it feels fake to me. Maybe I'm over thinking things.
Also certain acrylics have a coating on it that burns my skin. The cheaper ones have it and so do the mid-priced ones, which SUCKS, I love oil pastel and acrylic paints.

That's good to hear. (: Have you tried using ink brushes, or calligraphy pens? Well, not calligraphy pens...like, the kind where you buy the different nibs for them?

Like those, 'cept like...not as nice. x3 They're so amazing to use! MUCH cheaper than microns (pen is $3, nibs are $1-$2, and GIANT bottle of india ink is like $12...you only have to buy the nibs/pen once!) Since you go to art school, a lot of local stores *should* give you a big discount on supplies, too (I know my favourite local one gives 50% off). I suggest trying them out! I use them over microns all the time now.

Oh wow. I'll look into those actually.
Been trying to find different types of pens and test out the inking of them all. :P

you draw cyborgs very well.
we will have to remember this when we have money so we can commission you for a few pics

*blushes* Thank you! I tried. :3

cybernetics are among the most difficult things to draw according to a few artist i know in my hometown.
you did amazingly well. }}:3

Wow. I didn't think I did. It's my first try at them too.

Q'apla...and overwhelmingly so for a first try.
we hope that you will draw more of this character in the future.

I will.
I promise. I have a new sketch of her cybernetic parts....
I got a new sketchbook.
I am happy.

congratulations on the new sketchbook.
we are very happy to hear that we will be seeing more of this fascinating cyborg.
the wait will be difficult but as the saying goes "Maj doch SID ghos nagh"(Good things come to those that wait) }}:3

Absolutely groovalissious.
The total awesomeness of this is doubled due to being done by hand and not digital.
You have some groovy talent there.

Thank you Thank you.

I tried. :3

You are very welcome.
I like hand drawn and colored art over digital because there is far more of the artist in something done by hand and it kind of gives the pic some kind of soul that digital pictures lack.
I look forward to seeing more of your groovy art in the future.

That's how I feel about it./ :3
