Revisited the forearms today. I'm trying to work on understanding pronated arms. What I'm most unsure of in this tracing is the placement of the flexor carpi radialis. I'm wondering if it should be more to the left? It feels a little like I forced the brachioradials to the right in order for the two muscles to touch. What are your thoughts?

Hi @Jesper Axelsson , that looks correct. Below is a snapshot from an anatomy book with the same gesture for your reference.

Hi @Jesper Axelsson , maybe you can check into Watts Atelier's courses? I am actually taking his online one for drawing now and feel like I have filled up a lot of gaps for fundamentals. Although I haven't taken his painting courses, based on my experience with drawing, his course is very structured and detailed. It may be worth checking out. Hope that helps!

First of all, this is well done. Very well done. The structure and anatomy stand out immediately and the values are well presented. I think that the only way to take this further would be to complete the lower torso. The lumbar is implied, but it feels as though the upper body doesn't have any support.

I like this! Such a strong pose. I think what could help would be focusing on the center of gravity.

Hey Nicole, thats a really good drawing. I couldnt do that at all. The only thing that I think you should add is the same kind of beautifull shading to the face. You have drawn out the facial features but not shaded it so that area seems unfinnished. The only anatomy part that looks off is his sixpack. Particularily the three packs further away may be too bulgy. You might wanna look at the Abdominal Muscles in general. I think the Pectoral in the front doesnt connect properly to them! Besides that I think your drawing is amazing!

Hi! I'm wondering if anyone could help me figure out if the bean I drew for this pose is accurate. :)

Hi ana_101, these are really nice robo beans. The only thing I can think of is beware of the length difference between the torso part and the pelvis part. The torso part should be longer than the pelvis part. In some of the beans where no foreshortening occurred, the length of torso was drawn the same length as pelvis. Hope that helps!

Hello everyone, Below is my torso drawing based on a photo from Watts on Bridgman book. I would love to get your opinion/critique on my design and where to improve. Thank you!

Hello everyone, Below are my latest drawings. I have been focusing on improving the likeness of portraits and shading techniques. I feel like I have made some progress since last posts but definitely still lots to learn. Would love to get your opinions on where I can improve. Many thanks :)
