Hey dark, thank-you for these words, they helped me out — I did some more studies today from Hogarth, not intending to be super precise but to ingrain the anatomy of the human body into my tiny mind.
The first few sketchbook pages are studies, the two figures with the smiley/unsmiley face in between are from memory — based on this test my knowledge of the upper body is fairly good from the front, legs and feet are something I need to work on, as well as the back/lower back. The plan is to just work through the book and draw each image a few times if necessary to get it cemented — I'm skimming the head parts but will focus on the separate attachments (nose, eyes, ears) as I've studied the head quite a lot already.
The last image is the sketch of an artwork I'm working on, it's fairly surreal, I'm calling it 'Lifted' for now.
