new figure study from one of proko's figure packs.
@ Ursula, thanks! Yeh you're right the knee is a bit chunky... as for the extreme perspective, its so hard to get it right at such an extreme angle! overlap? yeh you're right, i should do it as cylinders first and see what runs into one another, good point :) will edit if i'm gonna use, thanks.
@Craig thankyou very much :) yes i tried to follow loomis's proportions for this, I use a method i learnt from proko- the robo-bean, because i kinda dislike loomis's approach in some ways, you dont get the same sense of volume imo which led me to drawing quite 2d looking figures. this way works for me anyway, though proportions may be off you're right. gonna read more loomis, though i find his books pretty heavy going with a fair amount of filler... just my opinion, some of it is gold. thanks for the comment!
