Thank you for your feedback everyone!! The constructive criticism exceeded my expectations, thank you for all of your thoughts and insights :D Also thank you for your kind compliments, its the little things that help a rookie artist keep going~

I completely agree with the general consensus that there is a structure but there is a good chunk that is still uncertain and needs practice. I apologize for the male photo - the model was on a bed and some of the limbs were sunk in a soft blanket - probably should have picked a clearer photo reference for a critique!

It seems my next issue to tackle is values - perhaps a more toothy paper would lend itself better to value variations (currently drawing on newspring with graphite pencils, perhaps i need to invest in some charcoal), and of course, practice shading on simple forms. I finished reading Marcos Mateu-Mestre's perspective series and he encourages the use of graphic and bold shading, but my shading def seems a bit uncertain.

Furthermore, i'm also reading through the Force book, to hopefully improve on gesture and get those early-game fundamentals in before I tackle longer drawings. Its probably a better idea to stick with 10 minute drawings max to really practice laying in those fundamentals.

Thank you again, I'm so happy to hear back from all of you!

Hello Line of Action community!

I started making considerable effort to improve my figure drawing skills this summer and I've just been going at it on my own. Here I'm sharing two sketches I did near the end of a longer figure drawing session and I hope you might provide me with some feedback as to what areas I need to work on, obvious glaring mistakes, things I need to look out for etc.

I'm currently following Proko's figure drawing lessons and starting the anatomy lessons so I do my best to draw as much as I currently know. Regardless, any critique is appreciated!



This is my first time posting on here so I hope this link works :D
