kvSketch Learns to Get Gewd

okay, I wanted to give you another crit because I've been learning a lot of this myself lately... See this character you did has a cool costume, and the rendering ain't bad but the pose is super stiff. The best way to ditch that is to do like super rough sketches like this and try to avoid straight lines in the gesture as much as you can. These rough sketches shouldn't take more than 2 minutes, and you should go for energy and twists and curves more than even considering accuracy or proportions. 

Like I see you doing these gestures as studies but not applying them. I know anatomy is tough and what not but when you try these really bold angles, you'll learn even more about what is working and what's not, as well as what you can not show, which is also very important. I've been reading this site by Paul Richards and it really has got me thinking differently about drawing, I'd reccomend reading some of it, even if the subject of pinup isn't as interesting, this applies to all drawing

That is a great example of finding a gesture and using practical methods of figure invention. It makes a huge difference on people's inital look at the work.
