Hey Matthias. Welcome to the forum!
This is a fantastic thread! I love the amount of work you're doing on the figure. Makes me want to work harder on it myself! Very powerful stuff! I don't think I can give you anything either since all the stuff you're studying from those books is pretty well explained. So I thought I could just let you know that this is very inspiring to me! So keep pushing!!

Hey :D And welcome to Crimson Daggers (I'm a bit late)
Nice start, love your studies. And I specially like your style of portraits and doing gestures-they look like they are dancing,and really dynamic, great job :D
Keep up with that work and have lots of fun^^

Great works, the figure studies really pay off, your last two from mind are really cool. Looks like you can see things in space really well, hoping to see more

hey man, nice sketchbook full of studies ! keep up that stuff ! concerning your anatomy studies, just try to stick with 1 or 2 anatomy books, if you go with loomis, hampton, bammes, hogarth, etc at the same time, you might be a bit lost ! just tackle the books one by one, it's gonna be easier to learn !! Keep it up !! and do more from imagination !!

Thanks for the comments guys!
MonoOrder: Thanks man! I study gesture drawing with hamptons book so you may want to check out his method.
Tom Seas: Thanks a lot! I'm glad if you think so. I focused a lot on this whole spacial awareness thing in my studys of the last months.
kikindaface: Thanks for the advice and the commment! I do just study with hamptons book though ;) I started with the Loomis one some months ago but switched to Hampton when I ordered it.
Nikt: Thanks! Yes I do. Two very good figure drawing books! I think that one would do well to start of with Loomis because Hampton doesn't deal with basic proportions. I switched to Hampton pretty early though because I prefer his approach on everything beyond basic proportions.
