Kim if you don't mind, where is the link to submit photos? I could at least pass on the message to other social media websites

Glad to see others are interested!

I'm not sure I'm confident enough to contribute with photos of myself (me also being chubby), but I do remember attending a figure drawing session with our regular model who was overweight, and drawing her was a really awesome experience!

Not sure if this is in the works already (I did check out the planned features) but would anyone want photos of people with different body types to reference?

okay so I tried your suggestion Kim and used straighter lines, and you were totally right, it felt really jaring and off, like I was giving myself a total handicap lol

but on the longer poses, one thing I liked about them was how I noticed I could actually spot anatomy errors more easily than with my old method, and this time they were more easier to correct since I didn't have a bunch of chicken scratch obscructing my view

here's the result with the 5 and 10 minute drawings

what do you think?

thanks for the critique!

I do draw the underlines, but afterwards I usually erase them because I get worried my sketches will get too messy



I always have noticed my way of drawing lines has been jarring to look at, I'll give your suggestion a try and share the results :-)

So I decided to pick up my drawing again something I haven't done since community college, which was about 3 years ago, and I wanna start easing into it with figure drawing.

I made a compilation of sketches I liked the most, along with the date I drew them to see my progress. Each of them were either 5 or 10 minute drawings



Any comments or critique on these would be much appreciated :-)

maybe you could make like a grid on your sketchbook to draw your figures in before you draw?

like if you're gonna draw 9 figures, make a 3x3 grid on your page to draw each figure in?
