im genuinely curious, is there any part of the body you start with when you do your gestures?
haha thank you for the compliment! the truth is actually pretty simple, the reason i have fewer construction lines is because i simply never thought to use them in the first place! here's one of my very
early gestures- there's no construction and its not too good. by contrast, here's one
later- theres a lot more contour lines and sketchy parts. i think more lines are a good thing, as long as they're purposeful.
as for where i start, its usually with the torso and sometimes head. the limbs are far easier to scale once you have those down, but as you can see my proportions are a bit off, so it's not foolproof. i also try to start with a very light construction line, since it's subject to a lot of change/erasure and i usually put it there just for my own reference.
