Loving the confident lines and shape design. Lovely.

Nice flow in this -- the pose looks life-like.

I like the gesture. The landmarks for the pelvic bone seem too low and too small. Look for the bumps on the body to find more accurate positions for them.

I'm still struggling with this topic as well, but I am noticing a few missing landmarks. For the first one, I'm not seeing that sort of middle v shape landmark between the shoulder blades, I'm also missing that donut shape at the hip which you should at least be able to see part of. There are also opportunities to define the lower back as well as seen in the video above. For the second one, I'm missing the collarbone landmark, the rib cage area, the delt is also ill-defined. I think something overall that I am also seeing is just not doing enough to the contrast between the underlying foundation drawing and the landmarks on top, leaving an overall muted look for the strokes. All that being said its good to see you putting in the reps, some of the flows of the line work are not bad either.

Hi @Josh mcgrath, nice studies! You're ready to move on! I found the landmarks to be really tricky (especially the 5 bumps on the knee). I wanted to be really accurate, but I chose to not dive deep into this assignment since placing things exactly would be easier once I learned anatomy. Once you learn the anatomy of the pelvis and scapulas, placing them accurately will become easier. (Btw, I don't think you've placed the scapulas too low; rather, they seem too high up and small to me, if you compare them to the landmark chart in the lesson notes) "I'd also like to know when drawing more developed drawings should I also draw the landmarks or should I just visualise and observe them to find the angles?" I'm currently going through Joseph Todorovitch's course "From Paper to Canvas" on New Master's Academy, and I like the way he uses landmarks in it. The process he presents for drawing the figure from observation is something like: - Place the head and draw an envelope for the rest of the body - Place the other body parts - Take a second pass, starting with the head again, to add construction and find the landmarks. You should try to get the landmarks accurately placed, since you'll use them as reference points as you develop the drawing further So I guess the answer to your question is that indicating the landmarks in your drawings is a good idea, but I honestly hadn't given much thought to it before taking Joesph's class. Hope this helps :)
