    The figures you have done are fine. I would suggest you do a side study of human anatomy - both muscle and bone structure. During you study make drawings, which you should keep at hand for reference. Why? You should do the study so that when you look at a figure clothed or nude, you will know the underlying structure. The internet has a good deal of information on anatomy for free. You need also to work on hands and feet. Line-of-Action has a section on hands and feet. Once you get the anatomy under control you will find then will go much easier.

    When I start a figure, I look for relationships. For example. maybe the head, hand, knee, leg, and foot lineup. Look for these relationships in the figure. When I start I use a simple stick figure as a structural framework. It is much easier to manipulate things doing this and make any necessary corrections. Once you have everything to your satisfaction. you can flesh out the figure. Because of your study and preplanning things will go more smoothly for you. You must put in the work. Remember: Practice makes better.

    You did a lot of figure drawing. They are good. You need to work on feet and hands for the figures. Line-of-Action has a whole section of feet & hands. Work on heads and faces. L-o-A also has a section of heads & faces. The ability is there, but you have to work on it. Practice makes better.

    You have a figure in front of you (photo, life, whatever). Quickly analyze it (quickly if timed). As an example my Figure 26. Look for things that are related (line up). On the right side of the figure, notice the head, elbow, knee, leg, and foot line up. The left side of the body forms a backward "C". In this "C" the head, left arm, hand, and leg line up. What I would do is make a stick figure to set up these relationships. In reference to the figure you are drawing, fill out the various items. Placing the items where they go and correct in shape (as a sketch with no real detail). Once you have this set up to your satisfaction, you can the for the shapes to correspond to the figure you are drawing. Continue to refine the figure until you are satisfied with it. You should make a study of human anatomy - both muscle and bone structure. Even if you are drawing a clothed figure, you need to know these subjects so you will know what is under the clothing. The internet has a lot of free information on these subjects. Do not think this will happen overnight. It will take a while -Remember: Practice makes better. I would recommend you use the Line-of-Action (L-o-A) hands & feet section & its faces/expressions section. For additional figures to draw, you can go to "On Air Video".

    Also, date your works. Why? You date the works so you can go back through them to see your progress. If you practice, you will see progress.

    You have a very good start on drawing figures. You need to go forward and complete them. To help you in that you need to study human anatomy - both muscle and bone structure. If you draw a clothed figure, it would be very nice if you know the muscle & bone structure below the clothes. The internet has a great deal of information on these subjects for free. Remember: Practice makes better.

    I looked at your head drawings. They looked very good. You want to do a head in 30 seconds & you have been doing this for only 4 days. It is going to take practice. Practice makes better. The more practice you do, the easier it will become. Put the actual date on your drawings. Why? You can go back to compare drawings to see your progress. For head anatomy look on the internet for free. Also, Line-of-Action has a section on heads & expressions.

    Your drawings are not showing up.

    You have been busy. To make the head/faces distinct vary the features: eyes, nose, cheekbones, mouth, Chen, forehead, ears, etc. I have an idea: put these various features on say 3in x 6 in cards. Make as many as you can & keep them in separate stacks. Shuffle each and deal a card from each. From those cards, make your face. You can repeat this process as many times as you want. Just re-shuffle each deck & get a new face. Also, you can go out & about with a small sketchbook & draw the faces/heads you encounter (in a park or mall). Line-of-Action (L-o-A) has a section on heads/faces that you might avail yourself of. You could expand your subject matter to figures. Study human anatomy - both muscles & bone structure. The internet has a great deal of information in this area. Whatever you decide remember: Practice makes better.

    There is hope for you. Look at my figure 26. One thing you will want to do is get part lined up. From the head through the elbow, knee, the right leg and the right foot these are all lined up. From the head, through the back, down the left arm & left leg are lined up in a reversed "c". See if you can imagine the items lined up. This organizes the figure. You can then go in & make the items fit the various guidelines. If you have problems with hand, feet, Line-of-Action (L-o-A) has sections to address these items. Notice that the elbows line up. At this point, I had not drawn anything. Once the various parts are organized I proceeded to fill out the figure.

    You need to find on the internet how to divide the figure (measurement is done with the head as the measurement). Go to my Figure 13 in which the figure is standing upright. The legs are equal for top & bottom (2 heads each). If the legs are seen foreshortened, draw the shape (example: my Figure 8). The left leg is foreshortened & the right leg is not.

    At this time, do things you feel comfortable with. Get those under. Then move on to other problems. I wish I could draw the figure for you but I can not. I hope I have not confused you. It will take a while to get things going. But if you stick with it you can do it. Remember: Practice makes better.

    Your figures are an excellent starting point to build on. They show the movement of each very well. Proportions look good. Try some of the figures provided by Line-of-Action (L-o-A). L-0-A provides a section on hands & feet. Your heads are starting off with skulls which is a good start. Also, do a study of human anatomy - muscles and bone structure. Make drawings of what you find & keep them at hand to refer to as you draw.

    Remember: Practice makes better. Therefore, practice, practice, and practice more.

    If you study of anatomy, you should make drawings so you will have them at hand. Say you are studying the back. Make a drawing of what you see of the muscles of the backside. You will have these at hand so you can call on them for reference. In drawing your figures, you choose whatever is of interest to you. Figures that are of no interest to you, more on to the next ones. Some figures provided by Line-of-Action are just too dark to tell what is happening. I just skip over these and go on to others that are not in the dark. You can stop the clock on a figure so you spend more time on your selection.

    I like the figure you use to represent your self. All the methods you have used will work. Any and all require practice on your part. Remember: Practice makes better. The stick figures are a good bet to get the movement down you are looking for. You might do a good study of human anatomy - muscles & bone structure so that when you look at a figure, you will know what is where. The internet has much info on these subjects. Make drawings of what you find because it will imprint the information on you better. The use of heads is normally used to measure the body. The legs (hip to knee) and (knee to ankle) are equal & normally 2 heads each. If you are dealing with foreshortening, things will get interesting because the view will look shorter. In drawing legs, arms, or whatever, draw the shape, Perspective could also be involved (remember: things close to you are bigger and if farther away will be smaller). Look at Figure 7 in my sketchbook. It was like drawing a pretzel. Things are going all over the place. In drawing it, I got things lined up with parts that match. I then filled out the flesh. Also, where necessary, I exaggerate the perspective & the foreshortening. That's just me. You do what you want to do. Find a life drawing session near you so you can get live practice.

    I see you are using modifies stick figures. Great. You have gotten the actions shown by the figures. Excellent start. You are set to expand the figures to more realistic views. I don't know how much anatomy you know. If it is weak, you need stop & get to know human anatomy - muscle & bone structure. When looking at a human figure (clothed or otherwise) the knowledge of anatomy is really necessary. The internet has a lot of information on this subject. Make drawings of what you find (these will be good references for you). Remember: Practice makes better.

    You are using modified stick figures which aid in depicting their action, which is good. Us a couple of figures at a time and add flesh and bones to the figures. If drawing hands & feet are a problem, work on drawing them. Once you have one set done to your satisfaction, do two more & then keep it going. Where ever you feel weak, work on that area. Remember: Practice makes better. After a while, you will be surprised at your progress.

    Nice start. You need to do a study of human anatomy - both muscles & bone structure. Make drawings of both. To make knowledgeable artwork, either regular art or comic books, you need a very good knowledge of muscle & bone structures. In your study make many drawings. The internet has plenty of information on these subjects. Also, make many drawings provided by Line-of-Action. As you move on request critiques of your work so you know how you are doing.

    Rember: Practice makes better. So practice, practice, and do more practice.
