Thanks for the reply, Vornag! I agree that my figures need more life (ha), I've been focusing on anatomy and proportions that I've forgotten about movement. Thanks for the tips!
So the past week was pretty crazy for me. My sister, brother-in-law, and their three kids came and was visiting for the week, and man I had absolutely no time to do any drawing. It was fine, though, I loved spending the time with them. They left last Thursday, and I spent the weekend recovering from chasing them around all week, and now that it's back to normal I'm still struggling to get back to my routine. On Monday I was completely out of energy and didn't draw anything. I did a few short poses yesterday, and then today I just worked on a copic commission for a friend. Hopefully I'll do more stuff in the next few weeks. Next Thursday is my last week of work, then I have a whole week to spend all day home before I go off to Scotland on the 5th! I've gotten a few emails about what I'll do for orientation and stuff and it's starting to feel so real, holy crap. ;A;
Anyway, I have some figures, and I touched up the old potion painting. Perspective still baffles and confuses me.

Does anyone have any perspective books/resources to recommend? It honestly confuses the heck out me once you get past the "1 point perspective cubes floating in space" stage. I have Perspective! For Comic Book Artists by David Chelsea on my Amazon wishlist and might get it, unless anyone has any other recs.
