I've FINALLY sketched/posted something!

Problem, I can't draw the human body accurately...Critiques are welcomed. :)

Adding 2 more. I didn't want to plague one post in this thread.

from your drawings it seems like your becoming aware of the contraposed masses of the body and how they affect balance, just keep doing more studies! in particular try doing some longer studies of hands and feet, use some references, but apply what you observe from them to your mannequin frame sketches. mm I should heed my own advice too. Good luck

I took your advice...well, not all of it since I missed a few suggestions. I__I;;

I'll use the feet and hands stuff later today. ^_^;; I have loads of photos to copy off from

Here's the hands...before I started to get tired of taking 2-3 hours on each of them and starting on the muscles of the torso...I'm getting slightly better <-guessing.

I tried to do a female version of the arm-hand, but it turn out to be a younger male instead (it was good and decided to finish it) +_+
