Traditional Art Want to help me pick drawings for my portfolio?

Hey there, thanks for stopping by.

I'm in the process of throwing together a portfolio which I will use to apply for an animation school. I've spent the last 4½ months on a drawing course (which I started a thread for, but then eventually left to die, as I: (a) Didn't have any scanner, only my iPod cam, and (b) Spent all my time drawing.

What I more or less need from you is to let me know which drawings you think are best and/or should be put in my portfolio (and perhaps also if there are any drawings you think I shouldn't use).

Criticism and such is also welcome, but since I am pretty much done with these drawings (and because there are so many of them), please keep it to what I should do in general to improve (Better proportions? Poses too stiff? Etc.), instead of analyzing each individual drawing.

A lot of the drawings are of nude models, so I'll be linking to them instead of posting them directly. The rest of the drawings are in spoiler tags, not because of nudity, but because they're pretty big.

I'm probably not the best person to ask but I really like your guest teacher's dog, hands, *mood sketches*, your first freestyle and croquis 2, 3, and 5. I suggest just think of what you want to portray yourself as, what you want them to know about your work because of course you want them to see your work how you want them to see it. Amazing works by the way c: Inspiring~ I hope I helped some how D: <3

 

Bumping thread with more scans (which I've also edited into the OP now). My scanner had trouble with some of the paper I was using, so some of the drawings don't look so great.
