Figure Drawing 23

My current goal is: Reduce stiffness and make my drawings feel more dynamic, energetic, fluid
Many thanks to Line and HornetofJustice for their critiques- I've tried to work your advice into my work here. Less busy, less lines, more thought about strokes and you were right- it does have more life, and it's overall more accurate and pleasing to look at, I feel. It stressed me out horribly not to have the anxious outlet of simply scribbling, but I'll get used to it. I like the results quite a bit. They are simplier, but more complicated things like shading will come with practice doing things this way.

Good evening, Sawyer_Street, and welcome to Line of Action, I'm Polyvios, how are you?
Nicer job on your broader strokes of gestures. Please keep up the greater works, but thank you.
Heh, it takes a while to reduce that line anxiety doesn't it? I still have to consiously stop my wrist from moving instinctively, heh.
Don't worry, it looks like you are doing great!
Only a lot. >_> I think all the nervous energy I have built up could power a small city now.
I find myself thinking a great deal more about my lines which is upping my accuracy a great deal but destroying that myth that artists can just mindlessly doodle greatness into place!
