Hey Michael I'm really into your teachings for a long time! You're a distant mentor heheh. This is the first question of a few that I want to make but will save for the gesture course. So, when doing the gestures, I came across a neck thing that happens recurrently, where depending on the torsion//relationship of the head and the rib cage you kind of lose that 'S' or asymmetry line between those two shapes. (I always try to get the neck line to represent what the cervical is doing in a 3D view). Is it a perspective thing or a torsion // mechanic thing? Below are a few examples. (This happens specially when trying to favor one side or exagerate). Thanks a lot!

Had no idea you could do this at the bodies of motion website! It's super useful :)

It was interesting to work on poses that were so similar to each other, helped me get into a rhythm and try finesse what I was doing. Still, not easy doing it with a time limit.

Hello ! Thanks a lot for your courses, I think I really got better at gesture since then here is what I've done so far, I don't know if you see any major issue (I'm currently trying to get better proportions, some gestures part are just too much long or too little...)

Hello professor! I was wondering what the difference between gestures and these poses are. In these timed exercises are you just creating the figure with as much detail as possible?

As mentioned in gesture basics 1 Its quite difficult to get the direction if various gesture lines without being thrown off by the contours, eg the neck. Did an experiment of setting up the pose with Proko's Skelly app and I think it might help to initially get a feeling for those basic volumetric forms (without muscle contours) in my head. Not a substitute for real figures but I think it's helped my understanding of anatomy a bit. Just need to get all this down to 15 lines!
