Hi @Yuliia Poperechna, nice drawings! I think you did a good job capturing the gesture of the torso!
- The mass for the ribcage and the hip feel a bit inconsistent. If you compare the two bottom left drawings for example; the ribcage and pelvis masses are more wide than they are tall in the drawing to the right, while they are taller in the drawing to the left. Try to keep the ribcage and hip mass consistent (while keeping variations between individuals in mind).
If you want a template, you could think of the ribcage as an egg, and the hip as a flattened sphere.
- Related to my first note, you might find it useful to think of the bean as being actual pieces; a ribcage piece and a hip piece that both stay quite consistent, and a middle piece that reacts to how the other pieces move. You could think of it like you're having a puppet in front of you that you're posing to match the reference.
Thinking of it as a movable puppet built out of distinct pieces can help with:
making the drawing feel more three dimensional
consitency in proportions
figuring out tricky poses, such as twists
making sure that your not losing any parts (forgetting the waist for example, or making it too narrow)
I hope this helps :)

Hi! How the website has changed! It's time for me to watch the videos from the very beginning and practice more. I'm posting my first sketches.
