Hey Chonkie,

The best thing to do is to keep drawing everyday, these arnt bad but can be much better. Draw from life as much as possible. For instance the one with the hand and pencil..try that again now and feel the bone structure and mucles and tendons, the creases in the skin where the joints bend. Lighting doesnt have to play an important part in a sketch but still use it to see how it flows over the form.

Hope thats helpful , remember draw everyday if possible.

J.P.

hogarths book is good, but you should check out this book (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0806930152/qid=1044060667/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/002-7529812-7195252?v=glance&s=books&n=507846) its the complete works of bridgman, he was one of the masters and I learned a lot from his book.
Ano check out this site (http://www.saveloomis.org/)
It's loomis' books online! he was also one of the masters and his books are freeee!:D Why? because they are out of print, so once you click on the link, u see different book names, they are all good, but IMO figure drawing for all its worth is the best one!:) you can draw off of your computer or better yet, print the book out and then go to kinkos and have them spiral bind it for you! and BAM! free book
