These look pretty Mike! I wanted to do some draw-overs but the photo's being at an angle makes that a bit challenging. It's easier if you take straight on photos of you work.

As feedback, be aware of physics while you draw, especially gravity. The body has to constantly work to stay balanced against gravity. Aim to show the energy and effort that the figure puts into the action you're drawing. This will make it more exciting for both you and the viewer.

Swen, not only are your gesture drawings an inspiration for me, but you are an exquisite animator. I sure hope you do this (i.e., animation) for a living, because if you don't you should. What a talent. Your motion is fluid.

Thanks a lot Toonybrain, for your inspiring words :)! It's great to hear that you are inspired by the studies I post here.

I'm a character designer not an animator, but animation is the major source of inspiration for my drawings and designs.
