with no offence, but he has been too many times at the shrink from my point of view...

Yeah his head is a little small. I didn't notice it though untill Brethesen mentioned it. Small heads could just be part of your style though.

thank you. If you want to get better at porportions, you need to do a very rough sketch of the whole figure first before getting into detail. That might be why your porportions are off. But don't worry to much about it. We all make porportional mistakes.

I do not know why, but i'm always paying attention on small details, before looking at the great picture... It is just me though.

It's not just you. That's the way everyone ends up learning to draw. When you go to a good art school though, you unlearn all of that. You learn how to do things like gesture drawings and squinting so that you look at the overall picture before getting into details. Your problem is in no way unique. It is the same problem faced by all artists not schooled in traditional drawing. You may want to try squinting. Squint ALL THE TIME when you draw. Don't stop squinting ever. It keeps you from zooming in on the details. It always works for me. I have made it into a habit, I'm always squinting when I draw. Eventually it will become natural for you to squint and your drawings will be much better for it.

Errm... Ahem... I'm more to poems than pictures... And i have noticed that several of my finnish poems are too long just because of my natural(?) habit to stick with those small details. It actually ruins them.

But anyway... As soon as i find my pictures of few axes, i'll post them here.

Oh, I do sketch it all out- my eye likes to see more lengthly proportions, that's all ^^
