Hi, Artloader,
how are you? It's have been almost a month since your last post...
I'd like to put my 50 cents into your dialog with Fedo about using straight vs curved lines. You know, I use both and I'm agree with you that straight helm in getting proportions. But to my personal experience, curves help in exaggeration. That is why I use straights in mostly in portraits and curves in poses.
I'm not sure what is the purpose of your action poses study was. If you wanted to get right proportion of these dynamic and unusual poses, than I agree with you about using straights, but if you wanted to capture movement, to even make it more evident, than Fedo is right about curves. Take a look at FORCE Drawing - Part 1 - with Mike Mattesi.
Also, IMHO, balance between "C", "S" and "I" curves\lines are essential for capturing life, action and force.
Good luck to you and hope to see some updates.
Cheers.
