Critique Request Western style drawing (I think)

[scroughstock]

Well this is the 1st drawing I wa brave enough to post up. I see the stuff you guys can do and amazed.
I would like some honest opinions and don't be afraid to throw up some marked up pics. My Ron Smith book should be here Saturday, but until them I would love to hear from you guys.

Thanks,
Shane

First Effort

Eventhough I can see several things you need to change in your drawing, I think you will learn more if you wait for Ron to show you in his Book, Saturday.

You will be able to spot them yourself as Ron explains Scrolls for you.

Your drawing is a good start, Just posting your effort is in itself a good start

Don't Quit.

welcome to the forum. i think the above comment is probably the best advise possible. i'd say generally to start for now , at least to practice the basic scroll spine. study its' flow and how it can be used in a shape to originate and also to terminate. you are trying to get too techniccal, too fast. one must crawl, before one runs the marathon- so to speak. i believe the basics to be understood, before the complex be attempted. jmho.
