@Nick: I find notans the best, most efficient way to sketch and it's super easy to render and get a realistic lighting. Notans force you to focus on form which is the most important aspect of drawing, it helps you improve tremendously

I mean specifically, constructing the figure in whatever angle you're in. Some that comes to mind (Cushart/Kim Jung Gi/Frazetta)

at least that's what I'm finding to be true

I think it's just a lot of practice and memory studies from specific poses, Hermidraws

Another interesting topic (unless already covered on here) is the form of practices that will lead to constructing the figure from imagination.

Crackedskull you plan on editing that article to make it more readable? If you plan on wanting to take any article you write seriously, a good readability is crucial man.
