Newbie Needs Feedback and Critique

[Gibson]

Hello!
I've been doing Marc's Art School for about 3 weeks now and I have learned so much and I am only in Term 1!
I have a huge issue though! I have no clue what I'm doing and I haven't drawn anything since I was like 12 or 13, I'm 45 now lol.
I got the coarse but didn't think about the fact the teacher is just some videos and I can't actually get feedback. I did see the feedback upgrade but it's 2500$? too much for me
Anyway I just found this forum section maybe some of you guys can tell me what I'm doing wrong or any ideas you may have.
I am really interested in comic style art and been watching lots of David Finch and Jim Lee.

This is pretty much my kinda first project, I had another but never finished it. It's not finished, just wondering if anyone has any thing they see that is just awful about it so I can learn what I'm doing wrong.

Edit, I didn't want to show the entire thing but I do want any tips on what I'm doing wrong if anything for a beginner so here is the whole thing. Again it's not finished.

Hey Gibson, Welcome.

Mainly the only thing that I see wrong is the perspective and some anatomy knowledge. The hips are not ling up with the rib cage for a static pose like this.

If we are going to invent a figure from our imagination it is good to learn a construction technique that will give you the correct perspective when starting out. Drawing boxes gets complicated, so use cylinder tubes or the pillow/magic bean technique to find the correct major and minor axis of the cylinders for your pose, and a bit of a gesture. Your pose is a bit dynamic so the perspective will be above us for the torso I think. Think about where your eye level will be and just kind of wing it for the perspective of the cylinders.

Lastly check out the landmarks of the human figure. I marked them in the draw over here. The shoulders and the hips will help you line up your torso, (unless the arms are going forward or up then the acromion process is going to have a different shape)

here is where I got the stance from.

Lining up the photo with this image I can see I got the shoulders wrong and the right leg is out to far. Too far in to fix It, don't really know how I would do that. I would have to erase everything lol.

I changed a bit on the left shoulder wondering if that made it any better and changed the angle of the collar bone line.

I see what’s happening now. Her left hip is thrusting to her left.

This looks a lot better; you fixed the hips being misaligned, and the shoulders do look better, but I see why you were drawing it like that now. It looks like you’ve been correcting it just keep on going. When you are finished tag me and I’ll take a look.

Ya, I should have posted the reference first so you would be able to see the pose and camera angle. Thank you for your tips and time I appreciate it very much!
