Some of my anatomy tracing done on the iPad. I like to get pretty weird with them sometimes. Makes it less boring.

I was trying to label the unlabeled muscles from a book to consolidate my understanding of anatomy. I got a bit confused with this one though. The brachialis and coracobrachialis are given. Are my labels on the other muscles correct? And what's the one right next to the brachialis?

I was doing some figure drawing and got quite confused by the shoulder structure here. Could someone enlighten me on this?

This is the 3rd time I've tried drawing her and every time it looks nothing like the image. I want to know what I'm doing wrong and how I can improve. This is the image I'm referencing and this is the best image out of the 3 ive drawin in my opinion

Looking for feedback on my gestures and anatomy

Hello everyone the following i Did a comission for a client And I thought that I did a good job But the client said that the eyes are Looking weird also the orientation Of the face is slightly tilted and I traced The line art to make sure that the line art Is correct so I am feeling frustrated why It got tilted. Please help me with the eyes and the Orientation of the face( Also i feel that Hair line has made the face feel tilted) Also is the drawing looking like the Refference image

Any thoughts or does it look correct?

I was wondering what can I do to get better accuracy in the human face?

I’m posting my anatomy studies here, feel free to critique this is joint simplification

Any critique?

I attended my first live figure drawing session in a while yesterday. So happy to have found such an awesome group near me. One 20 minute pose Two 10 minute Three 5 minute and five 1 minute poses

does anyone have current experience with digital painting in Affinty products? The last notes are from several years ago.

The rib-cage exercises from the Proko anatomy course.

These are the practices that I did based on the pelvis videos by Proko, Any suggestion with them will be welcomed!

I'm working my way through the Figure Drawing Fundamentals course. I don't expect to perfect any particular step in the course, but I do want to stay long enough to learn what is important. So... how do I know when it's time to move on? I'd love some input on knowing generally how to answer this question, but to make it more specific, I've attached a selection of my work from the first unit (Gesture) of the course. I feel like I'm starting to grasp the ideas, even though I recognize that gesture practice won't stop when I move on to the next unit.

Some heads and studies that I did based on the concepts from the Marco Bucci's course about the planes of the head. Any comments on them would be great.

This are my drawings for the spine exercises in the proko anatomy course, any feedback can will be apreciated and taken in to consideration during my deliberate practice.

I just want some general advice in what I need improvement on or some critique

In addition with the head course, I started the anatomy course by Stan Prokopenko. here are the activities I worked with this week. Just to clarify, this is like the 3rd or 4th time I'm going through the whole course.

I've started the Marco Bucci course on the head this week and I wanted to document my progress, I like to altern work in digital and traditional media. Any comment and critiques will be apreciated.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKY6H1H6f4Q Taken from this video , I used loomis as construction guide ^^ Proportions or general critique is highly appreciated ^^

So I’m new to drawing portraits and figured the best way to learn was do the 100 heads challenge and I’m currently on head number 55. I know my drawing definitely looks like A face, but it certainly doesn’t look like the reference. My question is, is that okay for where I am in experience? Or should I be more accurate for having drawn 55 already?

I've been working on improving my head drawings, so I followed some tutorials by Michael Hampton. I focused on constructing the head itself without adding facial features, as I wanted to master the basic structure first. However, something still felt off. Any criticism is welcome! Thank you so much for reading!

I just want some general feedback on how I can improve my hand drawings for the future

I’ve made some progress! After watching a few videos on measuring portraits and reading about different face drawing methods - I’ve done 15 more heads. I would really love advice and criticism on what to work on next. Only 45-60 are posted due to the attachment limit.

ive watched a few and it seems Stan never really gets into drawing veins other than a mention sometimes, is there a reason like they're too random? and i guess how would i typically go with learning veins?

I want to get better at portrait drawing, but everything I draw from imagination looks off somehow. I've been drawing from plaster casts online and pictures of faces online and they turn out fine, if a bit cartoonish and off, but anytime I draw separate from that, it looks strange. Here are two of my drawings, the first is just a bunch of one-line loose face drawings from imagination, and the second is a drawing of an oc

A while back, and I mean a LONG while back, Proko released a free file of skully skull images in jpg and png format. It was great. The skulls were in male and female variation, and in various minute angles. But sadly, I lost my file at some point. I was going to trace over the images in Procreate, adding the muscles -- and then the fat pads -- on top. Would anyone happen to still have this file and be willing to share it?

Is there any recommendations for a really good anatomy book? I need further understanding of forearms and back muscles in different positions.

Can someone help me with the measurements of bucket for pelvis? I know that numbers are not gonna be useful for drawing but for me i measure first and visulize it like from the photo I like to know the height and width of the bucket from front, side and top and also how slant it is I hope you can help me Thankyou

Hello everyone my intent with these drawings was to practice anatomy and I am studying Andrew loomis drawings and the following are the copies of his drawings can anyone give their feedback also my approach with these drawings were that just know about the group of muscles for example simplify the forearm muscles into groups like extensors into whole group(I was overwhelmed with all the muscles in the body and it became tougher for me to draw it)

Yesterday, I studied the hand—my nightmare. I mean, I love anatomy; it's amazing to see how the human body moves. But the hand... How can something I use every day be so demonic to draw?

Good Day. Any advice for my drawing of the pelvis? These all came from my imagination. (Except 1)

I'm studying anatomy right now and tried doing a greyscale study today, how did I do with the figure and light and shadow? Any feedback would be appreciated.

All of these were timed 5min poses from a picture of a model

This is a figure drawing from life. Spent around 4 hours on it. This was kind of a hard pose to draw but I think it's important to try and draw different positions of a human figure. It's also very huge. We draw in class on life-size papers so that the figure is around the same/similiar size as the paper. The biggest problem for me and my classmates is to fit the whole figure into that huge paper. Do you have any tips for this?? It's charcoal by the way. I would also be very happy if someone here has some tips on how to actually START drawing the figure on huge formats. The beginning of a huge drawing is always the hardest not only for me.

Most of these are new. maybe a day old.

Some of the drawings with proko’s timed sessions, to keep track of any progress. First image has 2min sessions that I corrected afterwards with pen. Then 5 min sessions with graphite and in the last image I decided to draw directly with pen (5min) then accentuated some lines with a marker. Most of the days I start with those sessions. What a great idea of the Proko team to create these!

Just want some help with an image i am working on and i'm having a hard time with these eyelashes. Specificly because i dont know if there correctly placed or not. Would love some help here. Thanks. PS sry for the bad image quality.

I always have trouble remembering how much of the elbow/triceps tendon area is supposed to show when I'm drawing the arms in various positions from different angles, and it always bugs me because if it's wrong then I have to redraw the arm. I was curious to know if there are any mnemonic devices or any tricks to help remember how much of the elbow/triceps tendon area is seen at different angles and in different positions. I am focusing my studies on arms right now and I am confident this issue will be less of an issue with time

Criticism greatly appreciated! I’m still on the 100 Heads Challenge and need more advice on what to focus on. Currently, I’ve been trying to center the facial features while maintaining the correct 3D construction of the nose and eyes. Only 31-45 are posted due to the attachment limit.

Hey everyone, I’ve been trying out the 100 Heads Challenge and would really love some criticism on my work so far. I’ve done 30 heads - with varying success - and would like to know how to train for the next 70 (preferably advice on value and structure). Only 15 - 30 are posted due to the attachment limit.

Found some of the YouTube videos, I’m starting out on learning how to sketch people / anatomy and the rhythm idea just unlocked so much!! Here’s a before (from before watching) and a quick 5 mins I did after watching the videos on drawing arms, legs and poses from any angles.

ive been practicing anatomy for a while now, I need feedbacks from everyone! Pls tell me what do u think ?

I would like help with foreshortening, inventing poses, and knee anatomy. I would also appreciate any other feedback as well.

Did some gesture drawing and i dont know how to feel about this stuff. Its so hard to relax and just do the motion. I am constantly tense and my nervs stand on edge every time i try this. And i just feel like i am just drawing random lines. Are they suppose to be this bad in the begining? I sure hate them and want to throw them all away. But i know i cant because i need to have them to compare and see if i have gotten better with time or not. But back to gesture drawing. I am very new to this stuff and i am not good with timers. it causes me to panic and think "oh god i have to finish it within said seconds oh god oh god oh god!" I will say this now because lets be honest here no one will even look at this let alone give feedback. The only once that get feed back on this site are the people that can already do Leonardo da vinci stuff and then pose "plz give me feed back so that i can stroke my ego". PS. Sry for that last part. just wanted to vent a bit. Tho then again its not like anyone will help me anyway. After all i am not Leonardo da vinci. wink wink.

As title says, I am doing a front torso anatomy study. Im wondering if I can please get feedback regarding anatomical accuracy, gesture, and/or likeness of my work. Thank you in advance!

We are halfway through the year and I feel like I have made a lot of breakthroughs in the fundamentals. I am so proud of my progress. This picture is January vs. June What do you think?

These were very fun to draw and I would like more feedback. These are less academic and more so meant to get me used to quickly getting poses down so I can draw them in panels. I drew with a 2b, 0.7 sized mechanical pencil on printer paper

Almost all of these are from imagination, save for one or two which I referenced character poses from the manga "Akira". These are drawn in ballpoint pen on an unknown, but slightly rough sketchbook paper. Each pose took under a minute, at most maybe taking me just a few seconds over a minute. They appear messy, and that's likely due to me not really sticking to a method like Loomis or Reilly, and really comes from me trying to pick up David Finch's method of starting a pose.

Hi everyone, I just started anatomy course recently, feedbacks are welcomed.

Now, show me what you got.

Hello, i follow the sample course on youtube from stan about anatomy, i can do gesture to a medium level. I cannot visualize 3d forms and put them on a paper but i know major muscles. I dont know if i need to go on figure draw course by hampton or i can go for an anatomy course by josh black. Do i need to go instead to the course on figure draw by stan? Help me choose the right course please, im stuggling many thanks!

Drew along with one of Josh Black’s livestreams and wanted to see if there is anything to improve upon with my drawings. First time really doing anything in this style, mostly stuck with an anime or comic style up to this point.

when drawing someone with who's distance between the jaw and the nose is smaller than between the nose and the brow line , am i supposed to move the chin line upward or am i supposed tto make the distance between the brow and the nose taller while shortening the jaw to keep the whole distance between the brow and the chin same as the average loomis head ,

Hi all, I love drawing however, I struggle with anxiety in trying to make it perfect. That sometimes causes me to not draw. Does anyone else struggle with this? Or how have you all overcome it? Also, here's some hand anatomy stuff, but I used references. Does anyone else struggle with copying and how have you made the transition to drawing from imagination. Thanks everyone!

I will start by saying that the last time i posted here i was a massive douch to everyone and for that i apologies. Should not have posted that and hope you can forgive me. But back to the topic. I did these this morning and i also posted on a discord that i am a member of and got some Feedback where they said that i need to study anatomy before i even get in to gesture drawing even tho i could have sworn that gesture is a good place to start learning anatomy and proportions aswell as leveling upp your observational skills. I have a hard time knowing where i should even start when it comes to drawing "outside of the fundementals" But I would really like to know from a true professional if i am just going about this all wrong and i should study anatomy first before going in to gesture or the other way around? I am soo lost on this topic and this is the one thing i want to be good at but i am stuggling and cant seem to find a good "mentor" or "teacher" to really tell me what or where i should start. But enough here's the drawings and the references i used.

Hey guys These are this mornings studies. Wanted to focus on the construction aspect (robo bean) think I've learned a bit from these but if you have any feedback id appreciate it

Hello, trying to learn the torso landmarks better to build the robo bean in a backview 3/4, could anyone please tell me if I did it correctly? If not I’d appreciate if someone could show me. Thanks

Hey guys Just started this piece and would appreciate any feedback you have so far

I wonder if the ratio between the limbs and torso is correct. How to draw human body with boxes?

I lately started this anatomy study and started by the bones, take a look! If you have some observation or review, please say, you're welcome!

Trying to move away from my rendering digitally looking...digital and more of a graphite/charcoal feel. Still haven't found a brush I really think is great, this one is one of Kyles graphite shaders from the photoshop packs. Also, anatomy thoughts? Working primarily with arms and legs currently. not totally finished, head hands feet and weapons all at various levels of finish but not really what I was studying on this one. Undersketch included Thanks for all critique/feedback

Been trying to learn about the human skull and how its constructed but i am kinda going at it blind. Just now started to draw a box to box the skulls in to try and get a better feel for the perspective but its hard to tell if i am studying correctly. I am kinda doing my own bootcamp if you will and would love some feedback.

I really want to learn how to draw heads and do gesture drawing effectively. I just can't seem to get it right. I would love some feedback on these Thx. PS i dont have the images that i used to practise on hand but you can find them on. https://line-of-action.com/practice-tools/figure-drawing?category=clothed&category2=all&category3=adult And https://www.deviantart.com/theposearchives/gallery.

I wanted to draw buildings that's why I was learning perspective from drawing fundamentals but there stan is teaching to draw heads using boxes and 2 point perspective, so I'm confused that should I learn that head or focus on learning buildings.

Hi, looking for any kind of critique. I know that feet could've been more proportionate and legs could've been thinner. Except that if you can give any feedback that'll be helpful and also confirming that am I right about my own critique would also be nice

Looking for a critique on this drawing

Sometimes i do something well and i feel like i already mastered basic anatomy, foreshortening and things like that but other times i need to learn how to draw a circle in perspective again because i can't draw the spine of skelly. How i can actually learn to draw an ellipsoid in the first attempt in any drawing?

Hello trying to simplify the figure before adding anatomy but having trouble with the right leg on the left side of the picture, could someone correct me if my box figure is wrong. Thanks

Pic. 1 is Types of Joints Assignment: Oh no, no simplified geometric bone structure, this is sooo hard for me. I no nothing about anatomy when start the very first lesson. HeLp omg.🥲 Pic 2 and 3 are Spine Assignment 🥹 Thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏

Hello Everyone, I finished this drawing last month (February). I'm applying what I know about anatomy so far to figure drawing. I finished going through the anatomy course (the free version on YouTube) last year. My focus on this drawing was on anatomy, composition, and rendering. You can pick any of those areas to critique, depending on where you feel most comfortable. And if you feel like tackling all three, it's okay. Any feedback is appreciated. And please forgive the quality of the photos. I don't have access to a good camera. I used different phone cameras hoping to get a good photo. One of the photos is sharper but missed some details; while the other one captured more details but isn't very sharp. I hope what you find missing in one photo can be discovered in the other. In a nutshell, I will appreciate a critique about anatomy, composition, or rendering on this drawing. Thank you in advance

Josh Black. From the YouTube Anatomy Demo where he starts with this head of a sculpture by Bernini. Josh simplifies it more, but I had a good time drawing along :)

I spent longer on this drawing than I usually spend on anything and I know the anatomy isn’t perfect. I would love critique on anatomy and also any graphite techniques I could study up on. I also love charcoal styles and any artists or recommendations to look at would be so appreciated. Thank you!

sorry ı forgot erase the some of the guidelines

I'm really trying to grasp the inter-wedging and inter-locking forms that Bridgman describes. I thought these looked somewhat nice. Does anyone have any feedback or insights on what else I could be thinking to improve these studies?

Hi guys, I’m wanting to draw a front view of a human skull using the Loomis method. Do you know of any good step by step tutorial from start to finish? I understand I can use Loomis as a guide, but having trouble figuring out where to place the features and what size the features are. It’s a little different than the human Loomis head because we’re placing eye sockets nasal cavity, jaw bones and teeth etc. So far on YouTube, I’m either seeing overly simplified explanations with no real reference points for placement of features, or else overly technical explanations where you draw a million guide lines that you’d never remember to replicate. Looking for tutorials with that sweet spot where it’s simple enough to follow but also detailed enough to show proper proportions and where to place features and roughly what size they should be. Is there a way to alter the Loomis head tutorial but adjust it for the skull somehow, and if so, how to the measurements differ? Any help appreciated!

I tried drawing a simplified skeleton mannequin and putting the muscles on top, i had some trouble with the arms though, are they too short?

This is my first time drawing muscles over a skeleton like this, was a little confusing and I didn’t try to get the muscle fibers perfect obviously, I just want them going in the right direction.

Need some feedback on the linework and anatomical accuracy, thanks in advance.

Pastel and charcoal I definitely need to study my anatomy kind of threw myself in the fire for this drawing but would love any tips and certain topics to study! Thank you

Need some feedback on anatomical accuracy and some tips on how to shade better. Thanks in advance.

A charcoal drawing definitely one of my first full back anatomy drawings. Would love any sort of feedback on it.

so i'm trying to learn forearm muscles but i'm already confused with my first one. first, what is the muscle/s that creates that ridge near the wrist? 2. which one of those two chunky muscle near the humurus are the ridge muscles? is it both or is the bottom one is an extensor muscle?

What’s a good exercise and or class regarding memory drawing? When it comes to poses, I always rely on references. I don’t do hyper photo realism but when it comes to character design I use a pose from reference then use my imagination to structure the character on my own.

I honestly have no clue what I did wrong here...Something with the shadows maybe?

Would love some critique on this arm anatomy study. The three small drawings at the bottom are the bones, muscles placement and flexors specifically (color-coded). I am not sure if I correctly assumed for that bump on the upper arm to be entirely made up of the coracobrachialis? Also, is the flexor carpi ulnaris too wide, or is the size right? Any other notes would also be appreciated!
