KRUCZK - Art School Journey

[snakker]

Hey there, I used to struggle with these. When a pose doesn't feel right definitely slow down and analyze. Then reiterate. Here's an example how I would go about it, I would first try to analyze a bit looking for things that can make it more complicated or more 3D (guess they go hand in hand). Overlap and foreshortening both happen here. Also, I would forego soft tissue like breasts, and details on feet, hand and face, as the purpose is more to capture the pose itself, so mannequins are your friend

Also, don't forget the gesture, it helps a lot to get the feeling of the pose

Update:
I've decided to start learning perspective.

It's nothing really fancy. Tomorrow i will do more of these.

And of course full figure drawing:

I think i'm making progress.

And what do you think?

Thanks in advance.

For sure, keep at it! Good work on the boxes in perspective. Proportions look good, at this point one of the most important things I feel is to really locate tue joints chest pelvis and head, I would also say hands and feet at least the direction they go towards

Also don’t forget your gestures!

Cheers

Nice, keep practicing those 3D volumes, it's very useful, when in doubt about the degree of a cylinder try drawing a square plane first. Also, how can you concentrate on the drawing with a model like that?? XD

cheers!

[brzechwajan583]

Thanks for advice!
I have problems with cylinder angle so it will be really helpful.

Left leg turned out really bad, i don't know really why but i just couldn't get it right.

And the volumes:

[snakker]

Looking good, proportions are there, do note there's a little more flex - a little more angle - at the knee and ankle giving the pose a bit more dynamism

As an experiment, try out doing one of these studies using mostly straight lines (short and long) and once you have the sketch done, go over those lines a second time to give them a little more weight towards the darker side of the figure

Curved cylinders can be so hard to make look good, but seem so simple in principle XD keep at it, when in doubt or having trouble on those, it helps first draw a line in the middle (like a spine) and to draw various contour ellipses along the cylinder to help better visualize it as you work on them

cheers!

Thanks!
I will do as you said

These are looking great! The volumes look believable and the figure studies are quite accurate!
My only recommendation is to add more lines where there's a change of volume, for example the line between the pelvis and her right leg.
Hope this helps!
