Hello again, Idon'tknow! I really feeling your frustration. First I want you to say that progress isn't that linear. After all, practice doesn't make perfect. Practice makes progress, and progress makes perfect, see? That said, I can and will do my best to give your the most helpful yet insightful critique on your current quick sketches.

When it comes to your gesture drawings and quick sketches, they all do the most strongest and most ambitious job on expressing the "humor, flow, and mood" of the sketched poses. I feel like you've got the loosest and most expressive feelings in your rough animation style sketches. But, I'm still getting too much of those itchiest and scratchiest poses, because of your fence-sitting in your outlines, or contours. Would like to please go ahead with just loosening your hands up with 7 minutes of 29 second pose sketches in gesture form, all done from your non-dominant hand?

The reason why is as a result, your intuition of lines can and will and must become the most fiercest, most fearsome, and therefore, ferocious in your ideas and execution.

It's not about the destination, it's about the journey.

Let's hope they've all helped you out in the longest of runs. Do encourage yourself!

Hello, 1 Macchiato, and welcome aboard to Line of Action. I'm Polyvios, but you can call me Speedy. I'm doing finest, and how are you?

You know, when it comes to figure drawing and animals, I think I see most of the boldest and most powerful passion in the figures, and I feel that the gestures of these beasts are almost all coming through, but the horse's hind legs are too longest in contrast to the shortest front legs, therefore, I'm not ecstatic with the most exaggeration and expression in your line economics of your drawing fundamentals yet. I don't feel that I'm the greater in terms of horse anatomy, but how would you like to kindly just go with our interactive drawing tutorial?

The reasonable explanation behind this constructive bit is because, though it's for this site's newcomers, but filled with figures, any and every beginner to master to legend can and will help themselves to sharpen their greatest control and understanding as regularly as they need and want, from quickest lines of action to the most totally organic forms. So, if you're REALLY, REALLY, REALLY most into constant improvement and innovation, how about I recommend you Loomis' Fun With A Pencil and more from Loomis on Amazon and free PDFs.

Let's hope they've benefited you most greatly.

Hello and good afternoon, Nesquikoyomilk, and welcome. How are you doing today? You know, despite seeing your figure drawings rotated in the wrong orientation, I think you're doing a greater job on your constructions, lines of action, and of course, the vigor in your gestures. Keep up the great work.

However, if you really want some more constructive criticism, I think that these figures don't look too recognizable, but their line quality and flow of the poses seem too rigider to me yet. Therefore, please be more concrete on photographing your figure sketches, like for example, when your figures are in the landscape format, you photograph them as so, but when in portrait, you shoot in portrait, but while you're at it, please loosen yourself up with 5 minutes of 30 second poses with either elbow and shoulder.

The real argument behind these two suggestions is because, your figure sketches and any sketches can and will become more recognizable to the average art peer, but, your lines of action can and will and must become less rigider and less stilted, but more gutsier, bolder, and more energetic in terms of your expression and exaggerations. So, for more info and tricks, please pick up a free PDF of The Walt Stanchfield Series, Drawn to Life, on Archive.org.

Let's hope they've helped and supported you for the better.

Wow, StValentine14, I love how well you've addressed your solution to the problem of documenting your progress in your figure drawing techniques. Great job, all in all. But still, I'm not getting enough of the exaggerated cartooning and flow in your figure's lines and line confidence. Would you like to go with your very first 1 hour class mode of figures?

As a result, your poses and gestures, and anatomy can and will become less stiff and more dynamic, energetic, and fluid. Please break a leg by reading much more from the Mike Hampton book on figure drawing.

Good luck to you.

Hello, Camelia, and welcome to Line of Action. I'm Polyvios, and how are you doing tonight? Say, about that video streaming thing you're really pitching, or really trying to pitch, do you completely think it bears any context of this forum topic? Are you sure?? All in all, thanks for trying.

Bonjour Camelia et bienvenue sur Line of Action. Je m'appelle Polyvios, et comment vas-tu ce soir ? Dites, à propos de ce truc de streaming vidéo que vous proposez vraiment, ou que vous essayez vraiment de proposer, pensez-vous vraiment qu'il s'inscrit dans le contexte de ce sujet de forum ? Es-tu sûr?? Dans l’ensemble, merci d’avoir essayé.

Hello and good morning again, Pasta. You know, when it comes to your sense of fun and enjoyment of the inherent drawing process and progress, I think you're completely and totally on the right track. But I feel that your figures, faces and expressions, animals, and cartoony animals have tones of potential. But, however, I'm not too hot on your senses of line confidence followed by holistic gestalt articulation of your things. How would you like to please exercise your hands and speeds with 5 minutes of 30 second figures, faces, animals, and cartoony works, all from your underhanded positions of both hands, and all from either hand, and all from both online and offline?

As a result, your economic delineations can, will, and shall, and must be more looser and more expressive, once you can be ready to sculpt out your forms with time and mastery. So, for even more tips and hints, please kindly look into free PDFS of the Walt Stanchfield series, but wait, there's more! You can and will also look into some free YouTube tutorials from guys like Toniko Pantoja and Stan P.,but that's not all!! Look into Quickposes and Adorkastock, too!

My hat's off to you!

Hello again, Pastabrother. Greatest job on your climbing forces and line qualities on your poses, as you have done. However, I'm still not getting enough of the most organic qualities in terms of your organic lines, shapes, spaces, and of course, forms. Why don't you please just go ahead with 6 more minutes of 30 second sketches, all drawn out from your underhanded postion with both hands?

The reason is as a result, your poses and line control can and will become the most loosest and mostly attractive. And for really most sketching tips and hints, kindly look into the Cartooning book by Ivan B.

Good luck to you.

Hello and good day, Spicierleaf.

Nicer job on your finer display and greater show of your flow and fluidity and elasticity of lines of action and rhythm. Way to go, but I'm still not too satisfied with your linear boldness yet. Why don't you please just try out our interactive drawing tutorial now?

As a result, your line confidence and consistency can and will improve quite exponentialy with time and repetition. For more tricks, please check out that video that Aunt posted above.

My hat's off to you.

Hello, Vn. Nicest job on your sense of organic flow in your organic lines and shapes. Your drawings rock! Yet, I'm not getting enough of that comedically lightest touch in your lines yet. How would you like to please just do 5 minutes of 30 second poses, all drawn from your non-dominant hand?

As a result, your lines will become completely loosest. COMPLETELY!! For most details, please try out watching and drawing along to some gesture drawing tutorials by Proko and more.

Thanks.

Hello, KittyTheLamb, and welcome aboard. I'm Polyvios Animations, and how are you?

Nicest job posting of the image. However. The link is still dead. Would you like to just please repost your studies on Imgur? So that we can get the most best idea of your artistic and creative progress??

Hello, Swampat. Welcome to our site!

You know, when it comes to exaggeration in gesture drawings, I think you're completely on the right track, but I still feel that the exaggeration in the poses and in the gestures still need more real straights against curves. How would you like to just please free up your shoulders and elbows with our Learn To Draw interactive drawing tutorial of figure studies here?

And as for your lines, they could and would be a real celebration of them, as you could and would just go for any cheap but affordable brush pen as Aunt Herbert suggested, then I suggest you just go for it.

The reasons why is because of two things: First, to help you self-teach on your line economies of figures and such. And second, to help you satirize and draw out the humor and feeling of your figure bodies as clearly and sharply, if not cleanly.

And furthermore, if you're really curious about more line economy practice and exercises, may I please recommend you Cartooning by Ivan Brunetti on Amazon right here, as a book?

Let's hope they work. Thanks.

Good morning, Ash, and welcome aboard. I'm Polyvios Animations and how are you doing today?

Say, you're doing the greatest job on recording the flow and movement and motions of your figure drawings, which is what I think would help you get into college, but I can and will tell that your works screams of enthusiam, power, and passion to make it into drawn animation, generally and specifically. However, I'm still not getting enough of the most insanest gestures and plasticity of the lines, shapes, and forms. Would you like to please kindly go for 5 minutes of 30 second figure studies.

As a result, your flow, fluidity and plasticity of the figures can and will become better billionfold with the most time. Here's some advice for you.

If you're really serious about applying for animation college, if that is your dream goal, just put in what you think is your great work.

And for most info, please look into a YouTube on how certain portfolios are accepted and/or rejected:

Let's hope you can and will find these completely and totally nicest, helpful, informative, and encouraging.

Thanks, Marshallyouna.

I've already looked at your links about a couple of months ago, but I can still get those paint by number kits already in my United States. Thank you.

Good morning, Pastabrother, and welcome to Loa.

Nice job on your Powerpoint drawings of hands and figures. But my beef with them is that the gestures and forces all are too bare. Would you like to please invest in yourself in a Huion Kamvas drawing tablet to draw digitally, or better yet, try drawing analogically with drawing with pens and pencils in notebooks, all thru our interactive drawing tutorials on our site?

The logical arguement behind this thing is because your poses and gestures can and will become less mathematical and more intuitive and human in terms of the blind contours and gesture drawings. For more info, please look into a copy of the Nicolaides book, The Natural Way to Draw, on Amazon.

My hat's off to you.

Hey, Ori. It's me, Polyvios, and I'm an animation, cartooning, and art student. How are you?

Say, aren't you gonna start a Discord just for us?? You, me, and everybody who wants to join??? Please???? Thanks.
