Hey there, Moriya. How are you doing tonight? You know, greater jobs on addressing your own problem that you really want and need to solve for yourself, but with a little help from me and all of us. We all understand that when attempting to draw the fuller figure, you're more easily tempted to draw the stuff out detail by detail, which is what we art, cartooning, and animation students need to keep it constantly in check. So, may I please just suggest and recommend you just go for the broader lines, shapes, and spaces (silhouettes and negatives), prior to your measuring out your relationships (or proportions and angles)?

Yet, the idea of this littler suggestion is because, by roughly mapping out the gesture drawing of the figure, it can and will be quite a more completely useful blueprint for your pose's proportions and angles as you can and will give your gestures even more structure and stability.

Therefore, if you're still completely and totally noncommital, please check out that video above, and another of of these below:

Let's hope they've been completely and absotively-posilutely helpful.

Good morning, Kim, it's me again, just sleeping and how are you?

Say, what we really like to see from our website is more than difficult and awkward poses and attitudes most conducive to pose warmups. Oh, and what about poses based on pilates, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and of course, orthotics attitudes? Because, I've come from pilates, P.T., and more.

What do you say? OK??

Hello, Idon'tknow. How are you doing tonight? You know, I just want you to chill out 🙏, and the reason why is because, you wouldn't and couldn't be afraid of drawing some of the most complicated of the poses, despite their static feeling. You know, I've learned that one of the greatest ways to draw the static poses is that you can and will exaggerate the slightest assymetries in the poses, then you can tighten it up with the extremely vertical line for balance.To answer your question, kindly click here.

The reason why I've posted this link here is because , let's just get this out of the way, simply, drawovers, see? I don't think that you need to worry about the most complicated anatomies and wrinkles too much. All you really need to focus on is the longest and giant lines and shapes to capture the spirit of the pose, you see?? So, for even most details, please scope this video.

Thanks for asking. Enjoy yourself.

Hello again, Idon'tknow. That's a very good question. Nicer job on your articulation of your current situation. I'm not much of a neuroscientist/neuroplasticist, but I can and will try to help you out.

How about for example, when you try to study and copy your reference, you don't need or want to take the reference too literally, so you gotta ask yourself: What can I get out of my reference? How do I get something out of it?? Is it inside and out???

The reason why you could go with this simplest approach is because, for example, say you gotta do a gesture drawing of a photo reference of a figure, and you've got 5 minutes of 30 second drawings. Your only one simplest reason is consequently, you don't have to get too much details in one sitting, unless you need to work on your master painting for one hour or more. So, for even most details, kindly pick up a Kindle and physical book of the Ivan Brunetti book, Cartooning, and this video on YouTube:

Let's hope they've been completely and totally beneficial.

Good morning, Sorasoi. You know, you're still doing great on your first attempts. I love the sense of fluidity, flow, and elasticity of gesture and balance of straight edges against curves. In addition, I'm still not even getting enough of that satirized organic sketching of lines and shapes yet. Would you like to kindly free up your non-dominant hand the most with 7 minutes of 30 second attitude sketches?

The argument behind this most favorable suggestion is because, it can and will help you kick out your left hemisphere, which is what I'm objectively calling it analytical, in favor of your right side, which is the gutsiest. But remember:

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

Ralph W. Emerson.

Let's all hope they've helped you out all as well.

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.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

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??
