i found some poses a bit harder than others and think they need qood understanding and analyzing of anatomy.
Btw i couldn't see my attachments at my first post so i repost and add new ones together.

Something that really helps me is using a plumb line to make comparisons to help know where to place the feet and other parts. For example, the first row second down with the man leaning. If you take a plump line (aka pencil) from his bottom of his chin (I like to use the pit of the neck) you can see that it hits at his calf..on your drawing it hits his glutes and lower back. If you take a plumb line down from the elbow on the right you can see that it does not hit the foot but is further out. On your drawing the plumb line from the elbow hits the top of his ankle. Just thought I would give you a suggestion that really helps me quickly see where to place things.

Here are some of my practices. I am trying to get looser with my lines and feel like this exercise is helping to do so. Would love a critique to know if I am going in the right direction

First Batch. I think I need to work on proportions and placing the feet.
I also felt that I may have tried to follow the contours a bit too much in some areas.

What helps me some...a general rule from the head to the bottom of pelvis is half of the body. Of course that doesn't work for all poses. I also will do very quick measurement with head length comparison which I believe I saw Proko do in his last drawing.

This course went from beginner to advanced real quick. Very frustrating, and the poses are too advanced and now seals make me cry.

Keep Practicing every day. Also, check out Proko's free figure drawing demos and Michael Matessi has a Youtube called Force with Michael Mattesi, which I found very helpful in learning to draw figure gestures.

Feel like there should be some rim light on the small character. I also think it could be more dramatic with a closer camera view..maybe.

Just a thought...but I've seen people that can draw amazing doing digital, but when they draw on paper it doesn't look nearly as good. Is there an advantage to learning to draw on paper first? With digital it seems like you don't have to worry as much about pressure, because you can just hit the undo button. That eyes too big...I'll just resize it. That looks so messy...I can just fade the lines and draw over it. Thoughts?

Hey, I am a 12 year old learning to draw I have given my full efforts into this project. All critiques are welcomed!!

Very nice job! Keep at it, that is the only way you get better. My little advise: You had the right idea to draw the center line. That is extremely helpful. Watch for were the tip of the nose is because in this 3/4 view it does not land on the center. It’s to the left in this photo. I attached a picture to help. I just wanted to give you a little advise because I wish people would of giving me help when I was your age.

Nice second attempt. Try to go very light handed laying in the initial lines that way if you make mistakes you can easily erase.

This was a good assignment. I felt getting the first marks down was the hardest. A big white sheet of paper is very intimidating.
I loved that animated movie. Great simple video.

My first attempt at shading a full figure with this technique. I'm noticing that some of my foundational underlying lines that plot out the muscles are not as accurate as I would like, and those veins are....a challenge, esp when you make it one of the last things to work on and you want to wrap up.
I'm thinking things feel a little....rubbery or overly smooth with some of the shading transitions. I'll have to figure out how to handle that as well.

Nice drawing. Are you using digital? I always find digital art fabulous for animation but it always comes off rubbery to me when attempting a traditional style.
