Whoa that's not bad at all!

Sure the colours are a little off, but petrie is a lot better than the first Petrie I did!

Don't feel sad that you used a model; everyone uses a model for something or other at some time. It's not bad at all!

I think it looks okay. Everyone starts small.

Actually, it's a good thing you used a reference to start drawing (I for example did that) so you have a feeling on how they are drawn.

Practice makes perfect, keep drawing, don't give up and you're not the worst drawer in the world (I have seen worse).

Thank you very much for your comments!

But I don't think that I'm able to draw pictures without templates on my own, because a psychological test has revealed that I'm bad at the imagination of spatial (so I'm not able to draw in 3D, because I can't imagine how things will look in 3D).

I'd say it's pretty good.

I would, however, recommend practicing on paper, scanning them in (if you can), and editing them from there

. That's what I do.

No way, you aren't bad at all!

If you want to see bad and bland, see my stuff. >_> I don't draw any better then a first grader.

You did well. Many artists use models. Some like Alex Ross use live models. Some artists buy posable figures to use as models when they are drawing. I saw on a show about how animators use to do their work, no idea if they still do nowadays or not, most if not all of them use to keep a large mirror near their desc so they could look at their own facial expressions they could make to use those as models.

For somebody who supposedly is imagination-illiterate, these are actually pretty good

. Don't let a label given by somebody else cause any discouragement.

Hello:
And I agree with Cancerian tiger, don't let anybody to discourage you.
The image of the Winter Olympic Game with Luigi and Shadow is cool

These are awesome, dude!

You seem like a pretty skilled artist. Much more skilled than me, anyways. Keep this up!
