Asked for help
I am having a difficult time getting the proportions right. for the head ribcage, and pelvis. if there is a diagram of all sizes relative to each other, that would be great.
Try using comparative measurement as you draw. For example, start by getting your head size established. Then compare in your reference the size of the head/skull, to the pelvis, and ribcage. Use that as a guide to help you draw, so on and so forth. Often the ribcage is about 1.5-1.75x head size.Check out the Skelly app where you can bend and contort the skeleton to help practice getting the overlap of the pelvis, head, ribcage, and how they relate to each other.
There is an anatomy book by Roberto Osti that gives proportions based on the length of the head and a procedure for drawing a skeleton from front, side, and back. I've found it very useful, though it requires a good deal of work to master. Basically the proportions are those of Paul Richer, which I think Stan uses also,
