Hard work + Determination = Growth

clockodile - Thanks! I agree with you on fast + slow = good mix, i am trying to incorporate this in my workflow, also one of my goals is focusing on creating a good (detailed) sketches, that eventually leads me to good paintings, to accomplish that I currently have been working on increasing my drawing skills.

Great sketchbook man, love your anatomy stuff espacially the skeleton drawings are already very good in my opinion. The sketches at the top of this page have an awesome linework did you take your time on these or cleaned them up a lot? I'm always getting messy doing these.
So really impressive, keep it coming, anatomy is such a big topic don't get discouraged! :)

Cruptic Thanks!

It did takes some time, from 10 - 20 minutes per pose, I tried to capture body flow accurately but not to slow, also tried to feel movement.
Random sketches from memory / imagination (little distorted because i drew it at an angle - bad habit)

Welcome back! and wow! looks like you're getting serious : ) I love the arrows coming off the planes for the L / HL / S etc, really cool technique to break it down! I saved those images for my own studies - if you don't mind ^^
