Excited to see the critique on these! You picked the one from my set (critique 3) that I thought was my weakest, which is perfect for getting feedback.
LESSON NOTES

What's in Premium?

In this premium critique session, I review student submissions and tackle the most common roadblock in drawing drapery: building a solid underlying mannequin. If your clothed figures feel stiff or flat, the issue is usually how the underlying body parts connect.

I will show you how to fix awkward transitions between the neck, torso, and limbs using overlapping shapes and clear perspective. We cover how to use S and C curves to break up stiff symmetry in the legs and arms, and how to quickly check your proportions using a simple grid. You will see exactly how much anatomical detail you actually need before adding fabric, ensuring your surface dynamics are ready for realistic folds.

Natural drapery starts with a solid mannequin foundation. Mastering overlaps and asymmetry unifies the body into a clear perspective template. This prevents stiff poses and prepares your figure for realistic fabric folds.
