Hey thanks man! You have given some pretty awesome advice and I've felt a boost in skill from just applying and trying to understand the information given in the critiques.
That does make sense about the anatomy and I will look for those videos since every critique I receive has anatomy laced into it somewhere so I do recognize it as a weak spot that needs a ton of work. I do have some understanding about how (like on the model) when the arms are raised and palms turned up, the deltoids roll to the back with the anterior now facing at an upward angle. Hard to explain, however, I don't think the painting represents it. Refine and tweak, tweak and refine I guess!
I do have to pull some of my gesture back because she has been stiffening up and starting to stand upright again so I'll have to push the pose again and try to get the dynamics back.
Anyone have any idea how to move this over to the sketchbook area? It's become much more than I originally intended it to be. I think there is some good information in here and would like to keep it going.
