Oh, ichiruki4eva! That's pretty good!!!
:wtf

Is this your 1st try?

Hm, I usually start from drawing the eyes too.
But sometimes, the proportions may end up wrong, because when you start from a detail, you get caught up in it and just keep on drawing and you forgot about the overview! So usually in planning the drawing, it's always good to start a light sketch of everything in shapes to plan the position and also to make sure that everything looks right, then you start on the details later.

If you want to achieve neat lines, one thing you need to take note is when holding the pencil, don't put too much pressure to it unless you're sure you wouldn't make too much mistakes. Anyway, if you want to be confident in drawing, don't even use eraser at all. Be bold and try it with pens instead! In that way, you will improve very fast and your line will look more fluid and free!!! Sketchy lines aren't bad cos it could be your style afterall!!! I have very sketchy lines too!!!:D

I hope my tips will help and again, I like your drawing!
Please draw more!!!!:D

ichiruki4eva:
hahahaha,I'm so glad our comments encourage you to draw more!
Please do, because for someone on her 1st try, it is really very good!:D

There's a lot of tutorials available on the net for photoshop. You can just goggle it. Learn some basic skills 1st(like layering) and learn how photoshop works. :)
When you are more confident, then you can start playing with it by getting books on techniques in photoshop. Photoshop can do a lot of amazing things!

Do read up on color theory as you need to know the relationship on how colors work. That's why manga are B&W, so they can draw quicker. If they are in color, it will be very tedious as colors is a huge factor in a drawing and beginners may find hard to pick it up.
The best way to learn about colors is to actually color your work in traditional media first!!!
On the same time, play with photoshop! Haha, just have fun and enjoy yourself. Don't worry about the results. The art will do it for you.

:D
