Here's some gesture drawings I did using real life picture references. I tend to lean into making more stick drawings, I feel like I get the gesture drawn just fine as a skeleton of a future drawing, though I'm not sure? If anyone finds anything to improve of this lemme know

I was drawing with the video until this point then tried to draw it from photos. Since I have studied anatomy for quite a while I got a good feeling and sense of what the overall flow would look like. I am still trying to get away from being restricted by what I am observing and make the gesture more exaggerated . I will keep following the tutorial and praticing.

This is great lesson since comics is what i really want to do. So should I always do gestures on my comic book thumbnails before I do boxes for structure?

Hey! Awesome video. I have a question. Demo 2 from this video. The left side of the figure shows the abdominal stretch/thoracic. But the right side pinches, so I was curious why that's represented with an asymmetrical curve opposing the thoracic? I'm probably overthinking it haha. I Understand we aren't drawing contour, so I am guessing that is just a representation of the motion of the twisting torso. Thanks for any insights!
