some poses from imagination, starting to improve slowly, especially figuring out what the hell to do with the legs.
sorry for the chicken-scratchy lines, it was a hell of a lot of trial and error. if i was going to continue with these i'd do a refinement layer or two on top.
@Setah, Thanks man! I may post some of the environs that i do on my DA page here just because the stuff i post in my sketchbook absolutely suck. I posted a few in my 'finished work', but i think i may keep my sketchbook just as my general stash of all the stuff i make rather than keeping them separate.
Great idea with the poses, i really hate doing quick ones but i know from life drawing that they are useful. Will keep struggling... Kinda starting to get a buzz out of doing characters, mostly because i know i suck at them so slowly improving is fun :)
realised i struggle a lot with the shape of legs, doing some muscle studies, more to come.
identified there are 3 main stripes of muscles that coil around the leg, which creates the bumpy bits, so learnt some fun facts.
focusing on main stripes and outline.
