Hey Trigger, for those twisting forms, try using more.. squeezable shapes next time and see how that looks, like instead of using angular shapes like rectangles, use... Sacks... imagine the figure is a sack of sand or something. Or ovals... So that you can depict compress and stretch better. Otherwise good practice.
The knight dude has short lower legs as well. Maybe its the whole lower half that is too short compared to the upper half. So pay attention to that.
And here is my daily oil study.
A note on my journey of oil paintings so far, I think I've painted in oils every day for a little over a week. And I'm just fucking loving it, I know I said it before, but... Fuck me, Im considering on changing my main medium to oils. I just love the process, holding a brush in my hand, mixing colors, suffering back pains (lol) Kinda feels like I'm doing real art. Of course Digital is art as well duh, nobody will ever take that away from me, but Oils guys, Its culture, its tradition, its such a warm and rewarding feeling when you finish something and you can hold it in your hands, instead of being limited to just looking at the pixels in the screen.
anyways, too much ranting.. here is the arm study i did today, from one of Bouguereau's paintings
Soon Ill make a full master copy of one of Bouguereau's.
