I am doing something like this very basic details to notice the construction mistakes
really trying to focus on that
Done with mouse cuz my tablet is problematic

When I fix the issues with my drawing tablet I can check my mistakes easily by putting it on the reference, right now I am just trying to see my mistakes

Since I really wanna focus on conmstruction and proportion, I am unsure
If I should focus on mileage and just doing alot or Critiquing my work and correcting mistakes??

I started to do some silhouette drawing or negatives space drawings. They really show me how bad my proportions are. Which makes me think I need to work on the larger shapes and bigger picture. Beside just silhouette drawing is there anything else I can do to work on proportions Are still lifes a good idea. Any help would be really appreciated

2 minutes gesture trying out different approaches

After the first few I just drew the line of action and tried a gestural silhouette

Some portraits done on around 1 minute each, really just trying to get proportions not worried about any details

gesture 2 minutes drew line of action, circles for head pelvis ribcage, then focused on silhouette

Portraits took a different approach I drew the silhouette then added guidelines on top
I feel the silhouette helps me with proportions. So the construction was done after the silhouette.
Very random and rushed perpsective practice, Trying to find the right reference.looking for that more 1st person look
