Humbling to see how my lines turn out. Nevertheless a fun way to practice lines in a more complex way than just 'drawing straight lines'. Adding this to the warm up mix!

This is my attempt. With and without guide lines. I can see that my boxes are a bit wobbly and uneven. Is there anything else i should look for next time?

I googled geomatric shapes and tried to draw them most accuratly. Pyramids and donuts give me headaches….. next step is to draw forms from imagination.

I've got a few questions about this one, and I was hoping somebody might help me clear my head. In Stan's drawing, the angle from the teres major to the elbow seems off (I pointed it out with the red line in this screenshot). I followed Stan but measured the angle differently; but I don't know if this is actually correct because it makes the guy look like he has a really long back. Is the teres major lower on the back than I think it is?
Also, Stan marks the iliac crest so it lines up with the PSIS; but in the Landmarks of the Human Body diagram that comes with this lesson, the iliac crest is a little higher than the PSIS. When I draw my own landmarks from different photos, should I line these points up like Stan does?
Please forgive my real "correcting" tone. I definitely trust Stan's knowledge of anatomy way more than I do my own! But I'm just confused about what goes where.
Thank you all!
Sincerely,
Grace Mounce

I think stans measurement was different cause he tried to exaggerate the movement/gesture of the figure. Its more an artistic choice than a perfect copy of the reference. Sometimes it makes sense to go over the actual proportions to get more asthetic results. If you follow his drawings trust the process and after that try to do it again on your own without looking at his example.

Hello, I’ve just gotten back into drawing after more than a decade.
Some I drew on top of others, so I don’t know how clearly it will read.
Any critique would be welcome, I feel like I’m doing something wrong but I don’t know what.

First congrats for starting to draw again!
What i first can see is that you try to find the contours with too many lines at a time. I also still have problems with scratchy lines and have to be really patient while drawing.
-try to use less lines, or practice to build up the lines on top of each other instead of next to each other
- maybe warm up with some more beans before drawing figures and rewatch how proko is drawing. Hes planning every single stroke really well and sometimes you can see him ghosting the lines in the air befor he puts the pencil on the paper
- you should check out his latest free videos on YT about drawing basics and line quality. I think you can benifit from it !
keep going and be patient with yourself. You will see that your lines will get better with regular practice. I swear.

I came back to the bean exercise and compared it to my results from last year. Left is old. Right is new.

Hands are always my worst thing to draw. Except feet…. My goal is to draw at least 100 hands. Cause i think repetition is a key to impovement and muscle memory. I will make extra file folder for my 100 hands challenge :)

hi :) the overall looks good i think. you make clear sketches and i can see whats going on. I think you may try a bit to hard to connect all contour lines together. so the direction of the gesture gets a bit lost. maybe focus more on movement than contour lines? im not sure how i could describe it better^^ but hope it was helpful

Some twisting poses I did today. I may get the overlap of some beans wrong & for Pose 9 I hope I did not exaggerate the bean too much

hi there :) i think you can try to show more movement with the center line. for example in #2 i would make the center line look down (direction of the belly button) and then twist it to the side to show the twist of the torso. i hope that was helpful

This pack is so large because it not only contains hands but whole arm and upper body photos. The folders are sorted by models which are Anthony, James, Laura, Mallory, Marshall, Ryan and Sekaa. I think the pack is good to suit the whole arm anatomy Lessons.

This pack is great for everyone who is doing the leg and foot anatomy at the moment. But Hands and Arm references are rare in this pack.

First Try on the landmarks exercise. I will first draw along with the video, than start some on my own.

self critique: I think the upper torso is too long and does not have a good connection to the bottom part so it looks off. And i messed arround with the arms ....

Hello, this is my homework for this section :)
Even though this is a ribcage assignment, it was more difficult for me to find the pelvis. I feel like I make it too small and too separated from the torso, especially in the one I made digitally too, I also had problems with the angle on that one. I made many experiments but I wasn't satisfied with any of them.
Critiques would be highly appreciated :)

Hi. You can practice the landmark exercise from the figure drawing section first to get a better sense for the pelvis. If you dont have the figure drawing class you can also watch the free video on youtube. When you learn to see the bone marks of the pelvic its easier to see how it is tiltet. Hope that will help a bit.

The drawing is not great but after hundreds of attempts at gesture, I think I am finally getting away from contour.

Hi there :) i think you should try to use more s-shaped lines. For this one try to make the curve of the hip and the upper leg as 2 curves flowing into each other. And for the knees try to give a little hint for the patella and dont lose the curve of the calves. I hope that will help a bit. Keep up !

Helloo, this are my assignments what do you guys think did I do it right? I would really apreciate some critiques :D

Here’s a few examples. I few weeks ago, I wouldn’t have thought I could do this. I’m a hobbyist practicing after work and after my kids go to bed. This course really propelled my barely existent skills. I look forward to seeing where this can take me a year or two from now.

This is really great. I feel like the feet on the right picture could have a bit more geometric structure. But the overall pose seems good to me as im not so far in the course like you atthe moment.

This is what 40 mins of bean drawing look like. Its really hard for me to stay focused on the same subject for so long 😥 but at least i can feel that my flow improves within the third page. Some beans might have butt cheeks but i guess no one will see this anyway 🤫
