Hey guys! I've been struggling with this pose more than I should have. Just trying to draw the robot bean. I'm very unsure about the result. Anyone care to correct it, if needs be? Cheers :)

Hey @Philippe PYNSON! I agree with Kristian on the gesture matter. But I also gotta say great job regarding the robo-bean construction! Structure and proportions, which are things a lot of people strive to get, look clear and strong in your drawing. This is a challenging pose indeed, but, in my opinion, you pulled it off, so I’d say you can let go of the worries about it. 🙂 Keep it up!

Hey Philippe! Great job on this, I really wouldn't change much about your robo bean. It's definitely correct, and you're understanding the anatomy of what's happening. That being said, yours lost the energy of the post. I think the next step would be to draw it with more gesture, and to simplify your shapes. I did a very quick draw over of what it might look like if I were to draw this post in a figure workshop. Sorry if it's not that clear in my example, but what you drew can be explained in two very simple lines. Two mild C curves to show the gesture of the body, and then some overlapping Ines to create some structure. This is really one of those skills that will take years to master. A good exercise to practice this is to do draw overs on poses. This makes it so you don't have to worry about anything other than the structure / gesture which allows for more precise practice. Hope this helps!

Your help is greatly appreciated! I was hoping for this kind of drawings, and you delivered. Thank you for taking this much time to help! And yes, it did look stiff when I looked at it. I'll do some draw overs, as you advised. Thanks again!
