Thank you again, have a good day dilandoubishop :)

Hi, good evening,

I am looking for recommendations on the best figure drawing books to improve not only my figure drawing skills but also my overall art, particularly in creating stylized drawings like comics and manga. I recently tried “Figure Drawing: Design and Invention” by Michael Hampton, which I found to be good, but I couldn’t go further after the chapter on landmarks.

I look forward to hearing your suggestions. Thank you, and have a good evening/night/morning/etc. :)

P.D: I know i said books, but if you have another sources to recommend like videos or courses that are aimed for beginner/intermediate artists like me i would appreciate that too.

Hi Mahatmabolika, thanks for your answer, i really needed it because i tend to forget that i have to take risks and experiment sometimes.
Good Day and good luck with your art journey too :).

Hi, good night, i want to ask something, how do you deal with applying the fundamentals that you have studied and practiced to a specific piece of art that you want to work on? Should i coppy someone else's work or should i try to draw from imagination? Look forward to hear your answers, because i have that doubt. Thank you.

P.D: I don't speak english too much, so maybe i make a mistake typing this :P
