Miku

I can't believe I could actually draw (and colour too)! This is my first ever digital manga/anime drawing. I was stuck a lot during colouring, especially the hair and folds in the clothing. The hair alone consisted of 40 minutes of work. But overall I think I did quite alright. Tell me what you think!

I couldn't do much with the background since I picked a somewhat difficult perspective for Miku. So excuse the background. Miku's pose is original and her clothing was drawn from various references.

I never liked drawing that much, since I suck at it. What you see right now is the result of hours of trial and error as well as numerous failures. Can anyone point me to some good digital drawing and painting tutorials? I like both realistic and anime styles.
