I love it! If tracing helps you get started and understand how to do it, go for it! And you credited the outline and said it wasn’t originally yours, so that’s good. Eventually you will want to move away for that, but for now it’s a good way to learn. I agree that the stabilizer is very important. I recorded trying it out. Your lines could also be neater if you use quick and fast strokes. That way you won’t wobble. I also recommend using different line weights to your advantage. You could use thinner lines in places such as the nose or lips and thicker around the main outline of the body. This brings interest to your outline. You could also turn alpha lock on and color your lines with a slightly darker color than what will be underneath, but that’s just optional. I don’t do outlines very much so I’m just trying to say everything I’ve heard and can think of. You’re off to a great start! You have a lot of potential and I think you should definitely keep going. Keep practicing and I know you’ll improve a lot!
