Those tweaks really helped! I see you also added some highlights for the light effect.

Something else that has really helped me with poses, gesture and anatomy, like, a lot, is to use my camera (I have a simple desktop camera), set it to 10 seconds, pose myself in the exact pose I'm looking for, then crop it use it as a reference to draw the basic gesture, and exagerate features as needed. Sometimes if I have props or a towel I'll pose it as well to get reference for basic form construction.

same lol i figured well if i wanted to learn it down the road, i can just go back n watch it later

haha I wish i could use myself but in quite a big guy so I really don't have the form to take inspiration from myself I do search pinterest endlessly for reference photos so if i were to use myself as a reference I would have to take away from myself haha

Yup I mean I've taken sculpting class in real life at school so maybe 3d will come back in the future.

More anatomy tweaks fixes and adjustment. IDK how to really draw magic so this is an attempt (also the reason why the canvas is so wide is because I actually drew this on my pose practice doc so if I cropped it down it would cut off all my other work.)

Nice work! Though those swirly magics had a certain charm to them. Sparkly effect look pretty cool! I see you also trimmed your lineart for this one.

ahh yea I shuda stuck with them. I just couldn't figure out how to make them glow and got frustrated. Yea I'm trying to limit my line art because I'm not the strongest at line art in general and I've always wanted to have my art style closer to Marc's where there is some line work but its mostly a painting. I honestly think line art is way harder than painting you can see every mistake in your line art.

anyway I didn't really want to do much today I had a long day at work so I more just doodled. I'm still have a bit of trouble with the arms but I think I'm slowly getting there give me your tips if you guys have any.

Coming along well! More than surprised I'd say he looks... confident? doesn't seem to worries about what's coming to him.

uu nice work! The body anatomy is nice. I feel like the mouth is the main culprit that makes the expression different :smiley:

Thanks I think I wanna make him surprised thats why hes swinging his body back tho i might keep it we'll see how i feel

Ah yea I see that I'll make some adjustments

was talking to my friend so I made a portrait of him.
