Illustrator Robot Coloring Update

I am not 100% satisfied with my final Piece because of the fact that many shapes make this a busy design. I had originally created this female robot design a few years back , and now I see that I need to simplify more if this were ever traditionally animated. I have always liked detail. However, one must first design things with the least amount of shapes possible before moving to the next stage. I hope that on my next design I can manage to overcome my reluctance to simplicity.

Illustrator Practice. Work in Progress

This is an old robot design of mine. It is pretty retro 90's and it's based on a comic I had been working on for ages. I used this drawing to familiarize myself better with illustrator. I still got plenty of work to do with the inking and adjusting of shapes. As well as adding shadows and highlights.

Seated female figure drawings

The 5 minute poses are the hardest poses for me to do because you have to draw as fast as when you do gestures, but at the same time elaborate more on the subject.
